I hooked up the pressurized oil tank with 7 qts of Joe Gibbs break in it that had been warming up over a register in my house all day. It is plumbed into the oil galley on the front drivers side of the block. I pressurized it to 70psi and opened the valve. I had taken off the passenger side valve cover to watch for oil. I got oil to some out of 1 push rod hole before the oil ran out. I think there is a lot of oil going backwards into the pump and then straight into the oil pan. Any ideas?

Good ideas
 

Found lots of good thoughts on this thread

Thank you

I talked to the Texas Speed tech line today. They said it is normal for oil to go backwards through the oil pump and into the pan when entering through the oil galley in my location. I asked if I was worried about nothing. He said the assembly lube they use should provide plenty of protection during start up even though the motor has been sitting almost 2 years. He gave me an example of a guy that had purchased one of their turn-key motors and had returned it because of failure 5 minutes after start up. When they opened it up upon arrival they found the inside of the motor was DRY! The owner didn't add any oil and the motor ran for 5 minutes before bearing failure! He recommended disabling the computer and fuel pump and turning the motor over until oil pressure climbs.

Sound familiar?

That's what I thought:)
