I am just wondering does, anybody have any tips for priming a v8 ef oil pump. I am rebuilding the engine and a unsure what to do, on my old car (holden v8) i just packed the pump with grease and that did the trick so could i do something similar, any help would be appreciated.
cheers justin.

Pull the dizzy out and use a looong 1/4" socket to turn the pump shaft with a speed brace until you have oil pressure.

old gas bottle, fill with water, weld in a air tyre valve. fill with oil, stick in a steel rod modified to fit the bottle and sealed, attach a pipe with a tap on it, charge it up, stick the pipe end into the oil switch hole, presto, pre-primed oil galleries!

Use a powerful drill with a reverse gear and an extension with suitable socket taped to it and when the oil exits the pushrods give it a few more seconds etc.
