Resurrection of a 32Valve

Well I know this is not a Camaro/Firebird thing but....I have found many people in here REALLY know there ****.

Here's the situation:
1985ish efi 32Valve Caddy
Sitting outside in the desert for 6 years
New engine

Here's my plan:
New fluids all around
Blow out fuel line,
New filters
New tires
New batt
*if I have a dried up seal, use some of seal sealer stuff you get at kragen.

Anything I'm missing?????


Thanks guys,
SuperchargedRS
