ScreaminEagle - No Oil Pressure...HELP-HELP-HELP...!?!?!

Hi Folks...
i put the (NEW for 2007) SE BILLET CAMPLATE w/UPDATED OILPUMP kit in my 99 dyna twincam today. Part number 25283-07 (has andrews geardrive cams) I cant seem to get any oil pressure for some weird reason... oil light on, lifters rattling badly tells me no oil pressure building up at all. I soked the oilpump with oil before just before installing the camplate... i`ve done several twincam builds but have never had a oil pressure issue in the past, doing it this way. I`ve ALWAYS gotten instant oil pressure before on other builds. Is ther something i missed along the way with these new se billet oilpump kits being that they are new and/or different for some reason...?

Can i pump some oil into the port where the oil pressure switch is, to hopefully prime the oil pump again...???..., will this get oil into the pump doing it this way...??? Or will it only go to the oil filter(???) I`m not quite sure if the oil relief plunger will let oil go into the pump either, by tryin to pump some oil into the oil pressure switch hole in the front of the engine case.

Anyhow, i would surely be greatful if any of ya guyz have any ideas i could try.

Thanks guyz (larry)
