waking a sleeping motor after 26 years 120-130 1967

Any thoughts/advice on reviving a B18 that has not turned over for at least 26 years ?
I am planing to squirt some oils down each sparkplug hole to start with.
Planning to drain what ever is left in the crankcase, then fill with fresh oil.
Then remove the distributor and figure out a way to spin the oil plump to circulate fresh oil through out the motor.
Anything else ??

Thanks
Peter
