Default COMP Cams Hi-Tech Oil Restricting Pushrod

I just did an install of ported LS3 heads , Comp Cam & Morel lifter on my LS2 Corvette engine. I use the car for HPDEs at The Glen, VIR and other east coast tracks.
I did my pushrod check and need to order new pushrods.
Has anyone used the COMP Cams Hi-Tech Oil Restricting Pushrods.
I understand it helps keep the oil flow to the bearings and less to the top of the head.
I am also installing a ARE three stage dry sump system.
COMP Cams Hi-Tech Oil Restricting Pushrods were built for a reason.
Will I get enough oil to the rocker arms and valve springs. I need to know before I make my order for new pushrods.

Gary I would not run an oil restricting pushrod probably as many we have seen started eating the pushrod cup area on at least the higher spring pressure deals.

With your ARE dry sump system you should already be set anyway and you can keep your rockers and springs happy by not restricting the pushrods.

I gave up on that idea.
Thanks for your answer
