Hello everyone. My friend decided he wants me to get his 58 running again. The car has not been started or turned over in 10+ years. I have been told I should prime the oil pump with a electric drill. What end should I use on the drill? I pulled the distributor out on my friends 390 once and the oil pump drive end is a strange shape. What should I use to turn it? I am assuming the 365 is the same as the 390. What have you used to prime the oil pump?

Thanks
