What size engine did they come off and what size engine are they going on? Was the donor engine stock or modified?

I blocked my return pipe off.
I advise a pressure regulator.
I fitted a pair of 45's so cant advise about the jets.

Should be pretty close. I think the Strada 130 engine had slightly different cams, but the standard jets will be close enough to get it running. It is always better to get it set up properly on a rolling road this will verify everything is correct.
