you need to talk to your engine builder -depends on oil pressure ,rpm ,
engine {sbf sbc bbc bbf}some dont need oil restion to the top, some do,
if you dont have an engine bulider than buy a performace book for your
engine

i have done a few engines and the only one i restricked the oil to the top
was a ford 390 block that was 415 ci ,the things i would do is to use
screens in the rocker valley and heads {to keep small parts from the oil
pan} and check the lifters to see if the oil holes match the block channel
hope this helps
