Fire suppression routing tips

[GThomas]

Hey guys,

I got a Lifeline 2000 setup to install in the new track car and I wanted to get some tips on where you've routed your lines or any ideas that may help during my install.

I hadn't even thought about something like this until you posted it. Definitely interested in your solution when you get it installed. With the amount of mods i'v done, it probably wouldn't be a bad idea to have something like this...

Yeah, i'm in the process of building my new car. After the hit I took at Watkins Glen, I'm spending alot of time an money focusing on safety in the new car. So I figured this is something I hope I never have to use but could save me or the car if I did.

The normal routing splits two direct of the bottle. Then T's to another two for both driver and passenger (HPDE Instructor) then another split for the engine. I was wondering if having something go the rear is worth doing.

Will you have a fuel cell in the back? I have a 12gallon well cell and a fire suppression nozzle would be back there when I plumb it, after all, there’s a lot of fuel in there!

As of right now i'll be be running the stock fuel tank.
