What are we talking about ? The slots are a problem in terms of big end lubrication because they will tend to "leak" more than a stock rod and lose pressure to the rest of the system. The question is how much of a difference will it make and will you need to resize the oil feed to the top end to re-balance things?
...the oil is fed through bearings up the journal on the right side....

all the bearings have two holes one to hold the bearing in place and one that lines up with the oil holes. That is what I am trying to figure out. Do the bearings feed oil laterally to the rods? Are these journals under pressure or gravity fed?
Oil to the big ends goes into the galley behind the barrels and forwards into the main bearings as you surmised (under pressure). From there, the oil is centrifuged out to an annular ring machined into the inner crank web and then goes laterally into the big ends.
Oil pressure is really low to begin with and the question is whether the slots will allow enough to "leak" out to measurably lower oil pressure. If you have roller bearings on teh cam, that's not a problem but you do need enough oil to lube the cams and rockers.
Yes they will and my wife bought that floor from Costco! http://costcocouple.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/Better-Life-Technology-Garage-Floor-Covering-Costco-1.jpg
Ha awesome floor I have it in my basement shop. love it, I got mine in the scratch and ding store $40 a roll. Need to get 2 more to completely finish. We ship it and when the roll gets. damaged they sell them off cheap. I only lose about 2 feet off the roll to damage.
