Default Accusump sizing

I’m looking to install an Accusump to pre-lube before cold starts. Plans are to use the sump just for starts and then close the valve off after the pressure increases and the unit has refilled.

Canton offers a couple of Accusump sizes, but for this initial lubrication will the 1 quart unit work (according to Canton, the one quart unit actually holds around 1 ½ quarts) or is the 2 quart unit recommended because of the amount of oil required to pump into the engine. Any advise would be appreciated.
