Update.... No matter how fast I spun the pump by hand, I could not get oil to come up to the pad where the rocker pedestals sit. I was getting plenty to the filter and sender so I buttoned it back up and started the engine. After about 45-60 seconds of idle time, oil started seeping from the #4 rocker weep hole and gradually moved to the front of the motor. I am now getting, what I feel is plenty of oil to the rocker shafts. This little lift-truck is running as good as new now and couldn't be happier. Thank you all for your help.

I just wanted to update this in case somebody uses the search function in the future.
