Reply to "An interesting fire suppression system"

Bob:

 

I mounted it on the firewall, so the nozzles (one at each end of the canister) are right above the carbs, as I understand that's where most fires begin.  I got the idea after seeing Henry install it in some of his cars.

 

It's item 50-1025, 26.25 inches, for a Porsche 911.  I realize it's overkill for my car, but better to be safe than sorry.  They aren't cheap, but it's good insurance.

 

 

Tom Blankinship has also installed one in his Speedster.  Halon seems to be the best/cleanest fire suppression agent, although I trust I will never have to use. it.
