All you need is for the Oil Light to go out before you start it that first time.

crank over without plugs in and you should see oil at the rocker shaft then you know it is primed before starting after rebuild

Okay I tried priming the pump and used the switch only and the orange oil light fades out when cranking, now I will attempt to start it and hope for the gauge to start reading pressure as its not moving a bit when cranking only with the gauge connected.

Problem solved, After connecting a booster to my battery and changing the kinked oil gauge pipe I managed to get 80 psi and no orange oil light on the dash. thank you guys for helping me.
