In addition to what Tony said, I have found that sometimes you may need =
to rotate the engine by hand slowly so that the oil port going to the =
head opens up on the rear cam bearing.  What I usually do is pull the =
plug on the back of the head to ensue I have oil coming up and once I do =
then put the plug back in.  Sometimes it takes a while to see oil from =
the rocker shaft.  Can you say smoke coming from the drill!!

Run in reverse, yes.  You should see some oil come up to the rockers.  =
You should see oil pressure on the oil pressure gauge.  I can get up to =
over 30 psi with the drill.
