Is there any necessary procedure for changing from 10W30 to 20W50?

Once I get this beast (108K) started again I wanted to put 20W50 in it to elliviate a potentially leaky rear main seal and lessen some start-up piston slap. I am going to run mobile 10w30 initially after start-up for a couple hundred mile before switching over to 20w50 anyway (I already put in the new 10W30).
