Philippe, not only to prime the Engine without Ignition. BUT actually priming it by turning the Pump without turning the Engine. This way you are able also to verify the critical oil flow to the Valve Train. Dont you have a Book for the 351C that explains all these little things?

Another thing that is critical is that you choose the correct lenght of your Push Rods. They are sold with in increments of 0,1" or perhaps even less I dont remember right now. There is a procedure to select the correct length so that your Valve Train does not fail. All these things are more critical than you might think and they will decrease your risk of failure.
