The heads are not a reason for oil restriction.

The question you need to be asking is:

Should I restrict oil to the rocker shafts if using a hgh volume oil pump?

The answer is yes. Otherwise most of your oil stays up in the top of the engine and starvation of the bearings, especially when the oil is cold, is a possibility.

If this is a street driven car you might be best off using a stock oil pump.
