This may be to obvious, but after changing the filter element it is a good idea to add your quart or better of oil to the pot before you screw down the lid.
I realize that this filter only handles a limited amount of oil at one time but an old timer mechanic suggested this to me. In fact I saturate all my filters on my various vehicles to shorten that momentary pause before oil pressure builds up. Doesn't take but a second and makes me feel better if nothing more.
