Default Can LSx engines "pre lubed" before first start up?

Hello!!

What should i disconnect if i want just rotate my engine with starter motor ? I would like to raise oil pressure before first start. Any ideas? And does it give any trouble codes? If so can those be erased by just disconnected battery ?

Thanks!!!

Disconect the coil harness's on the center of each vavle cover and you will be able to spin the motor with the starter with out fear of it starting. No Codes will be given. Hope this helps.

I pulled all plugs out, disconnected fuel pump relay, adn disconnected the harness that goes to each bank of coils. Worked good.

I just simply pull the PCM fuse from the fuse box. If the PCM doesn't have power it won't even try to start.
