I'm having a problem gettin oil for my 91 350 tpi

Hello, I just have finished rebuilding my 91 camaro. I have installed a lt4 hotcam ls7 lifters and 1.6 roller rockers. I tried to prime my oil pump for about 10 minutes. 2 rockers got oil real good, but the rest either got none or very little. I have 60 psi so I'm gettin preassure. I tried primin with a drill. Any idea what is going on? Perhaps I Need new push rods? Thanks to anyone that can help.

Thanks. Il try it when I get back. I have had ppl tell me to fire it up just put oil on the rockers myself and it should straighten itself out. I let my lifters soak but i don't think they have soak up oil yet. Do you kno if my stock pushrods would work?
