Daredevil, raw water pumps don't "always" prime themselves. I've seen it first hand.
The 232 Sea Ray for instance is natorious for not wanting to self prime until you get some air out of the hose coming from the transom assembly to the raw water pump after a long winters rest..

Thanks for all the Advice fellas. Filled the whole system with water, atleast as much as i could..lol didn't want another impella blow out. But the engine pulled water like a champ..
I was suppose to take some video footage, but i guess i was so excited that i totally forgot that i took the camera to the boat..Oh well i guess next time
So hopefully i should have some footage soon, Just got abit more cosmetic stuff to take care of, and i will post some #'s
