No oil to rockers.

I have drained the oil, added a gallon of WD 40, remove distributor and oil pump gear drive, electric dill and priming tool while turning engine by hand to line up cam journal holes to head oiling holes.

A set of steel valve covers with the tops cut of helps to keep the mess under control as you'll need to run it for longer than just an oil prime.

I am describing for a small V8 just noticed slant, I'm sure the same can be done for this engine.
