The best settings for what? Have you ever used max before, what are you trying to do?

Could you rotate the model in the model view?

As already stated, be glad it imported in one piece without holes, or having half the normals flipped. The orientation is of no importance, as you can just rotate the object to any orientation you desire. So far as import options, find settings that import the model as intact and complete as possible. If there is a weld verts option, thats sometimes a good idea to set with a really low weld threshold. Theres nothing like importing a model, and every single face is detached from the model, tripling your vert count, as well as making proper smoothing impossible.
