The later crank based oil pumps should self prime so check the pickup is on properly.  It's also possible to use an oil can and feed oil I'm through one of the rocker shaft oil feed holes to get the upper galleries filled

Put the pickup back on myself so I'm happy with that.  Are the rocker shaft oil feed holes supposed to point downwards?

Got it fired up earlier, nearly literally when it transpired no4 injector o ring wasn't sealed to the fuel rail and started pissing petrol out  :o

Not looking good for oil flow to the heads though :(
