I am finally going to get my car back from the body shop. Prior to dropping it off, a year ago, I ran the engine in for over 100 miles. Thanks to all of you I feel the run in period was a success, after lots of trials the engine was running very strong.

My question is: Should I fire it up per the initial start procedure, ignition achieved in the least amount of cranking, or, should I crank without firing to allow oil to circulate for a while before ignition, or…?
