Default What should I do?

I was out of the country for while and haven't turned over the engine in my cobra since last October I have a 351w with a mild performance cam and gt40p alum. heads! Should I squirt a few drops of oil or fuel additive inside the cylinders before turnning it over? Or will just changing the oil do the trick? Not sure what to do? I wish I had someone drive it periododicly while I was away but didn't and now I want to fire it up but afraid it will damage my engine? Any ideas would be super!

Change the fuel or add some fuel additive, change oil and filter. Pull distributor and use a drill and priming tool. Run drill till you have oil pressure. Install distributor, start her up, check timing and let warm - drive it.

If it was mine I would start it up and take it for a nice little drive and if everything is running fine I would just change the oil and filter
