Assemble the engine with the oil that you are going to run. Coat the cam and lifters with cam lube. I don't know what cam you are using... flat tappet or roller , but use cam lube with the flat tappet and install new lifters as they are a cheap investment. If you are using a roller just lube with engine oil. I would recommend priming the engine in the stand and before start up. If you installed a new flat tappet cam... Make sure you break the cam in properly!!! Take your time and make sure things are right and you should be O.K.
