Ever wondered how long it takes to prime a new engine with oil? It took over 2 minutes of turning the pump with the drill to get to all of the rockers in the top end of the new engine. That doesn't include time spent turning the engine over about a 1/4 revolution about 6 separate times to ensure all the lifters, push rods, and rockers received fresh break-in oil. The oil pump, oil filter, and lifters were installed dry, just to see how long it could take. I used a pump priming tool off of Amazon to perform the job. You can also rig up a used distributor to do the job. Whatever you use, it needs to fit snuggly in the lower cam bearing bore to ensure that the engine builds oil pressure. So if you have your valve covers on and you think you can just spin the pump for 20 or 30 seconds and have the entire engine primed, think again. Make sure you prime the engine for an adequate amount of time, and roll the engine over periodically while you are priming if possible.
