Can't comment on much, but I read that it takes a lot of cranking on the ls to bring oil up to the heads and is not the preferred method at all. Recommended to use a priming tool. So I don't know if the observation of limited oil through the rockers is a good indication of pressure.


No other way to prime a wet sump LSX. Oil pump is driven off the nose/front of the crankshaft.

Huh? They make a tool to prime it. I have seen it; unfortunately I do not own it. Although I will soon enough.

I really hate these priming conversations; 1000 threads on various forums online and they all contradict themselves.

I am so wondering how or if GM ever primed the engine when they built it.
