Hey fellas,
I'm in need of advice. I want to put in another safety device to protect my investment. This is of course for gas fire suppression. Should I go with the regular ABC unit or Halon? Thoughts, suggestions or Steve go piss up a tree are welcome. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif) |

This starting to be a no-brainer as predicted for some of you who have BTDT.
Of course Miles idea brings back fond memories of the weenie roast I had with my old fiat X/19 one morning on my way to work. I'm not going though that again. I literaly sat down on the curb and sobbed, as my cherry car finished napalming itself into the pavement. I have included some links below for your thoughts. I really like the one that has a pull cord, but my next question is where in the hell do you mount it in the car? It looks too big for inside the cockpit. could it be mounted onn the engine bay firewall and all I would have to do is drill a small hole for the trigger? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...&category=33722 http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...7500992741&rd=1 http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...7500362958&rd=1 |
