Forged con rods with stock pistons?

Looking to fit forged connecting rods to my stock pistons, found some IE rods but they are saying they are for tapered wrist pins only. Bar-Tek on one of their blog posts say that EA113 stock pistons need trapezoid wrist pin rods. Besides IE and FCP Engineering, I haven't seen anyone else sell "drop-in" rods.

Would these rods fit my engine or do I need to replace both pistons and rods with aftermarket ones? Just doing rods would cost 30% of doing pistons and rods so that's why I'm more inclined towards them.
