Default No oil pressure, cant seem to prime the oil pump

I have an 89 TTA into which we have transplanted at 4.1 "291" shortblock with TTA heads. It has a hv front cover. The oil pump was well packed with vaseline, but we are unable to develop any oil pressure or flow when we spin the oil pump with a drill. What could be wrong. What is the proper procedure to prime the oil pump on a TTA since the oil cooler setup is different than a GN?
