Are there bearings that could accomodate the difference in sizes between the rod and journal?

Nope, that would be a .050" oversize bearing and only .040" oversize to fit a crank turned .040" under is available. You don't want that much bearing material in a performance engine anyway.
All that extra bearing material to make up for the amount ground off the crank makes for a less durable 'soft' bearing. This is why you don't really see race or performance engines built with bearings more than .020" oversize.
Just buy a stroker crank that has the 3" mains with the rod journals at the stock 2.25" Pontiac size. Ace at PPR sells them.
