I did when I swaped to a forged lower end.....no injector harness, no spark plugs to allow a high speed spin-up, and coil packs left off....just spin. With the valve cover removed it had oil to the top.

So get everything together minus plugs coil packs and injector plugs and turn the key for a few seconds wait a few minutes turn key for a few seconds till oil gets to the top of the motor.. makes sense but doesnt it take quite a few turns to get oil up that far?? seems it takes some people 5 seconds of 800rom idle ??
