How long did you crank it? Sometimes it takes 10 - 15 20-30 second cranks(with rest in between) to fill everything back up with oil. And use the jumper wire not the key and KEEP those batteries charged or you’ll damage your FICM.

I definitely cranked on it long enough with giving it brakes in between and a charger on it to keep batteries up. I didn’t think about using wire and not key I do same thing on my 7.3. 6.0s are definitely a new territory for me but I may give it another few cranking sessions. Maybe it takes a little longer with a 6.0 but I honestly feel like it should have started or atleast be building more hpop pressure guage on guage cluster was registering oil pressure

Pull the ICP and see if the oil rail is full.
Does the gauge on the dash blip up a little bit?
Is the oil filter reservoir filling up when you crank it?
