Solid roller guys running restrictors?

I am putting my shortblock together and wanted some experience from those of you running solid rollers in your LT1's. I know on the older SBC we put restrictors in the block but i don't know what needs to be done with these LT1's to make sure i don't have any problems with my new engine. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks clint

I've used .060" restrictors that screw into the rear of the lifter galley's in my NHRA Super Stock motor. It crosses the finish line at a little over 8000 RPM and has had no oiling problems on either the top or bottom end.

I run oil restricting pushrods, but it is due to running Isky Red Zones with their their extra oil ports.
