Vince,

I've heard of these supplementary electric oil pumps.  Where would I look:
 Racing trade?  Catalog?  Any specific source you know of?  I think it got
snipped but this is to prevent camshaft and lifter damage on a M-B V-8 that
has sat a long time (after replacing one camshaft and all the lifters).

One place for an expensive pre-oiler:

A less expensive automotive sourse is:

Canton/Mecca
2 Commerce Drive
Branford, CT 06471
(203-484-4900)

You may also find info about pre-oilers at:

The page about pre-oilers was down but it may be listed in the whole
down-loadable catalog.
