Looks good but why use oil restrictors??

hi bill.
i dont want oil draining on my crank...the block is smoothed to drain
at the front and rear.
i saw a video once of the inside of a dry sump motor runing
there was still lots of oil to splash oil the cam and lifters...and that was a flat tappet.
i also block the relief in the filter housing...and drill a 20thou hole in the front main
oil galley plug to let air escape.
the water pump bypass is also blocked and 4 holes driled in the t stat.
