Thanks Gentlemen! I have researched a bit, and the pump that connects to the oil filter adapter, then the component that bullitt1448 posted I see can work. But with my tubular front end from maximum motorsports, and running an oil filter relocation kit, and obviously factory oil cooler, seems tough.
Yes sir, and not to mention the assembly lube used during the assembly.
Thank you Sir! So to triple check, you’re saying, from my mention previously. Keeping power off to the pumps, cranking the engine till oil pressure comes up, then obviously powering the pumps to initially start the engine…this is a good approach?
I assembled it back in 2009. Getting married, buying a house, and having Kids placed the build on hold.
Sorry, I didn’t quote your reply, with all my latest questions.
You lost me. Fuel?
Click the link, should take you directly to a post in that thread with a video on the pump sprayer method
here's another recent thread about this, with a couple more videos from the modularheadshop and melling. most of the stuff i've read says that using the starter alone doesn't spin the pump fast enough to get the oil everywhere you want. not to say you won't be okay if you do this, but i'd rather play it safe.
i've used the garden sprayer method on the 3 engines i've done so far and it seems to work well. you really can tell it's filling up all the stuff in the top end. i also bought a M22x1.5 plug so that nothing pushes out of the filter area in the opposite direction, but it's probably not necessary. best of luck with it!

Saw this and wondering if this might be a good thing for those with long term projects and stored cars? Thoughts?www.svtperformance.com
Thank you Gentleman! With my tubular front end (Maximum Motorsports), the oil filter won’t bolt on until my MM oil filter re-location arrives. Is there a fitting that threads over where the oil filter threads on normally off the cooler, to block off the hole?
