Bought a modded nikki

Okay so i bought a modded nikki carb from Ohio Rotaries.com and they guy said that the guy whom he bought it from had the carb modded my Sterling, so, my question is what do I need to do to my 1985 12A MT car to properly make the thing run??

Absolutely nothing. Should run fine. Wouldn't hurt to put a new fuel pump and fuel pressure regulator on for good measure

It will run on just about anything, but to get the full benefits from a Sterling you'll need at least the following:

Free flowing exhaust

Fuel pump and pressure regulator: https://www.rx7club.com//showthread.php?t=529605

Fuel pressure gauge from www.re-speed.com (don't bother with anything other than this gauge).

Enjoy!!!

Post pictures I can tell you whether or not it's really a "Sterling", and if he's around, Sterling himself can tell you too.
