My car sits untouched, in a hermetically sealed bag that is bone dry, from before Thanksgiving until after Easter (a good five months). When I pull it out, I crank it a couple of times, for five or so seconds, until the oil pressure gauge blips up. That fills the Holley up (mechanical fuel pump), I enable the ignition, pump the throttle twice, and she fires pretty much right up. I've done it this way for years.
