Wouldn't hurt to un-plug the power from dist cap (HEI) and crank it over some (without starting) to get some oil working towards the top.
Many ways of prepping - and not prepping - for restarts.
It's all up to you and how much time you want to invest.
6 months inside a garage - would probably just spin it some with starter (without starting) - and then hit it.
If it was much over 6 months
I pull the distributor and run a drill tool on the oil pump.
Re-Install
Pull the spark plugs and give a small squirt in each hole.
Crank it over with coil wire unplugged.
Replace spark plugs.
Then hit it
Its old fashioned now - but its not in vain.
