I would go down to a local reputable machinist. Their advice is often priceless and you might be surprised what they have sitting in the corner of the shop sometimes

Looks like a good street engine for the price. Even though I have heard nothing bad about hypereutectic pistons and powder rods so im not sure id push it more.

the GM performance engines like the 602 and 604 crates both use the powdered metal connecting rods and hypereutectic pistons. We ran a 602 for 4 seasons with no issues and running a 6300 chip. We have a 604 in our sportsman now and no problems last season with the 6300 chip. One nice upgrade on that engine would be vortec heads.
 
I've used ATK remans for stock replacement stuff in the past. No problems to speak of.
