I swear by my accusump.
Had it for years, same electric solenoid valve too. I've 25 psi oil pressure before I crank the engine. The crank and rods are already tightly squeezed by a 360 degree pressurized oil wedge by the flip of a lighted dash swith (right next to the fixed Halon sytem actuator). There's z-e-r-o metal to metal contact upon start-up. If I had flat tappet lifters I would not want them rubbing on ANY cam lobe that was dry.
BTW... 2 quart for pre-lube only duties & 3 quart if you're going to use it for loss of oil pressure problems at the track. The "pre-lube" style electric solenoid will not work for track duty either. If you want track & Prelube you'll need to plumb in 2 separate solenoids/valves.
