You can get rods and Pistons for around $1200, but to actually get them in the motor properly will cost you much more than that. I wouldn't recommend just straight swapping over rods and pistons. You would want to make sure your bearing clearances are suitable for the power you're looking for. Also, you would want to make sure your piston to wall clearance is also right. Sometimes standard size pistons aren't actually "standard". Your clearances could vary a few ten thousandths which could cause noise and unnecessary wear.

Now with all of that said, you could probably straight swap it all out and have no issues, but you will be doing it at your own risk.
