It won't matter much, or atleast it hasn't mattered much in the past. I've done most of the preferential routes with straight up kai and modernized ships, while it may have cost me a couple extra runs because lvl20-35 ships get insta popped more often, I'm not about to run a girl to 60+ to do a few less E2 runs. Hell, for summer E1 people were using lvl1 Kikuzuki without much trouble at all, that one was exceptionally easy though.

If you've got them, kai them. If you don't have any or all of them then it still wont stop you from clearing a stage, it will just be more expensive.
