Several people do have them. There are some threads about it you can check out:

I found these by searching with the keywords pre lube and post lube. Check outthe search function, use the advanced search as it is very powerful.
My installation and kit is shown here:

and was bought from:

and is just big enough. It makes 20-30 PSI. More volume would be desirable due to the time it takes to fill up the big filters. One member made one from an engine oil pump and a starter motor, I believe that was the best so far. I have noticed that any kind of air leak on the suction side will stop these things from working well (priming themselves), and also found out that during post-lube to cool the turbo, if a hose pops off, you can dump all your oil on the ground in a minute. So regardless of the instructions bragging about how well the various high temp hoses and special barbs may be, or how well you think you pushed them on, a hose clamp should be used on all barb fittings. Also note i have plumbed mine to the "after-filter" port on the oil cooler manifold. I been told I'm doin it wrong. There is another port before the filters that should be used. Pictures are likely in the threads.
