I use a tube of either CRC or Sta-Lube assembly grease and a Plews oiler filled with engine oil with maybe some STP mixed in.
Nothing special. |

Other than new flat tappet cam lube why not use the oil your going to run in it for assy.? Do you not pre-lube the engine before firing it?

Absolutely. the oiling system is primed with an oil pump drive tool before the start up. After that I have an Accusump which I keep charged up so when it sits for a time I just open the valve and pressurize the oil system before I fire it up. If I am running it hard I keep the gate open and the Accusump is a safety net.

Lubriplate 105 has always been what I've used for rod and main bearings, rocker pivots, etc.
