Dumb question, cold starting...?

I hope you put assembly lube on the cam lobes. Pour a few drops of oil down each spark plug hole. Best to run oil thru the galleys first. Most people use a rod that spins the oil pump (~$10), but you must remove the distributor and its drive shaft. I put a T in-line w/ the oil pressure switch so I can inject oil from a small garden pump sprayer, then block off the port. At the very least, ground your coil output wire so it won't fire and turn over the engine for 20 sec. Maybe better to turn it over by hand if easy to do.
