By coincidence, got this this morning.
These guys are in Wisconsin and do race car parts including AN
hardware and various hose fittings, for some of which they seem to be
the only source on the planet as they have them made.

Choosing and Owning a Fire Suppression System
For such a critical piece of safety equipment,
<https://www.pegasusautoracing.com/advcat.asp?CategoryID=FIRESYSTEMS&utm_source=201710-1&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=201710-1>fire
systems can be a complicated topic. There is so much information, it
can be hard to know what questions to ask.
If you are shopping for a new system, start by reading your rule
book. What do the rules require? What is acceptable, and what will
get you sent home early? Returning an incorrect fire system is nearly
impossible, so it is critical to get it right the first time.
Should you get an electrical system or mechanical? Electrical systems
allow more flexibility in installation, but they are typically more expensive.
What extinguishing agent is best? AFFF (foam) systems are often less
expensive than gas, but gas systems do not require any cleanup afterwards.
How many nozzles do you need? You can't add or omit nozzles from most systems.

and Using a Fire Suppression System
If you are a new owner of a fire suppression system, there is still
more to know. Even if you have owned a fire system for years, Fire
Safety Month is a perfect time to give your fire suppression system a
little love.
Your fire system requires regular maintenance. There are specific
things you need to do before every on-track session (test the battery
and arm the system), before every race outing (check the pressure
gauge and discharge lines), before every season (weigh the bottle),
and every 2 years (send the bottle in for recertification).
If you take your racecar to car shows, or if you have young fans who
like to sit in your racecar, there's an easy trick that can save you
money when you hear "Hey, what does this red button do?"
