I just recieved my revised lifters and I was wondering if I have to pump them up full of oil like it says on Vfaq. Can I just put them in and prime the motor before I start it?
 
do not pump them and leave them pumped up!!!
after you pump them stick a paper clip in the top and bleed them off so you can push them in with out alot of force. they will tick like crazy when you start it, but it will stop. if you leave them pumped up you take a chance of the valves hitting the pistons.
