Default Synthetic fluid in the hydrolics?????

Has anyone had problems with synthetic fluid in the hydrolics? I have a DOT 3 synthetic in the system now (car is awaiting a motor) and I just got my Spec 3I and the instructions say not to use any synthetic fluid because it causes LS1s to have "fluid blow-by" WTF is that??!!
