Well i would of gotten oil pressure before it lit that's for sure. hate those
dry starts. If it runs and does not skip and you used modern components and
procedures it is broken it... i would change the oil and change the filters and
check the old filters to get any assembly trash out along with anything that
might be in the fuel lines though, real soon at that. Checking the valve springs
and lash is a good idea too after you heat cycle the engine a couple of times.
