I have a 1969 GTO with a factory 400 and 1966 Olds 442 with an Olds w31 350. These cars have been in been in storage for awhile. I am going to prime oil pumps and engines but I want to make sure that I am have the correct Oil Pump Priming Shafts. Any recommendations as to the proper one(s) to buy? I do not have a spare distributor(s) one hand to convert. Thank You

remember that you spin the drill or air ratchet on the pontiac oil priming tool in reverse (counter clockwise) of the chevy direction (clockwise)on a Pontiac!

Id suggest you visit a local salvage yard and find and purchase an older pontiac distributor and fabricate your own tool
braze a socket to the upper end of the shaft and you can use an air ratchet too spin the oil pump priming tool, and avoid burning up a drill.
