How much resistance is normal when priming the oil pump on a 400? My 18 volt drill has a hard time turning it (counter clockwise) once the oil starts comming up. When I put it on the gear reduction it turns it ok but seems like the oil pump might be to hard?

Well finally I got this truck back from my friend after trying for around a year but as my luck would have it I have not had any kind of decent work. So I may have to sell it. But for now here are some pics & specs. 1979 f250 4x4 460, C6, 203 with part time kit & gear vendors overdrive D60s...

Was thinking about the edlebrock with the egr but not shure it is worth the extra money. What about a cam & lifter...
