    This is our 3rd 6602 2 of them holleys and 1 zenith. So far we've been lucky keeping them going with eBay parts finds. They're beasts and definitely love gasoline. But they start nearly every time no matter how cold lol

    Driving from southeast NM to Pennsylvania and back

    I'm not sure on pick up I can call them tomorrow and see for sure. It would definitely fit in bed of a pickup 2 of them fit perfectly on a pallet and I only need 1. Shipping on it is as much as the tank and I figured I'd find someone making a trip sometime
