With all my chevy v8's with good fuel pumps, once the oil pressure gauge goes up the carb is also getting fuel. That's when I give it a couple pumps. If it's been sitting for a week or more I don't waste my time pumping the dry accelerator pump while the carb is dry. I wait for the oil pressure then a couple pumps is all they need. If it has only sat overnight then one or two pumps and they will fire right off; before the oil pressure, which isn't really desirable in the winter time.
