Default No oil pressure on fresh rebuild

Just tried starting new rebuild and could not develop any oil pressure. I previously forced oil in the rear tap a couple weeks ago to prime the pump, but has been two weeks ago. The motor started, saw the oil pressure gauge flutter a little bit and then settled on 0. I thought it should have picked up the oil from the pan. Using electric fuel pump with push rod hole plugged. Front galley plug is installed.
Any thoughts?
