Just prime them with oil before starting the engine. ( Crank the engine without starting it) I would take it easy on them for a few miles at least to see if there are any leaks or odd things happening. Also ask the shop that is rebuilding them for there warranty policy.( If they require break-in time etc..)

So, quick and painless question here, how are BNRs stock rebuild units. That is my next purchase here in a couple weeks. And I will actually have 2 cores, think they would take both for a reduction in cost?
