I’m seeing days above 40F and would like to blow the dust off naturally…. Im hesitant to prime because when I did my OPG’s and cams It look a very long time to see pressure.

Modern synthetic oils leave a good film so even if it is 20 or 30 seconds before pressure builds as long as you only let it idle you wont do any damage. I have started engines that have been sat for several years and as long as the starter has turned the engine for a while to get some oil flowing even if there is little or no pressure it will be fine. Let it warm up gently once started and check the oil before you take it for a run.

How long has it sat? If only a few weeks, letter rip :) although let idle down before moving would be what I would do.
