Oil pump install question.

I think everything you are describing here is a best practice. After all without oil you wont make it out of the driveway.
trust me I'm no one to follow the Sheep that's for sure. When everybody warned me about taking out the inner Springs before I broke my cam in I brushed them off and was no problem. But when it comes to oil through the whole system that's where I'm going to take the extra 5 minutes...
