Remove short oil line from front cover. Prime oil pump by dumping some oil into the front cover. I like to use an oil bottle with a small rubber hose attatched to a plastic nipple lid from a trans oil bottle. invert oil bottle and squeeze for a while until oil dribbles out. Wipe up excess. Install oil line and crank with plugs removed (and ignition/fuel pump disabled) until oil filter sounds full when you tap it and/or an indication of oil pressure is seen on a guage. Crank for short bursts of no more than let's say 10 seconds to let starter rest.
