Well since we all know how we need our vacuum hoses and that those factory hard lines can occasionally leak. I believe I'm going to be opting for silicone type hoses for the rest of my build. I found this website http://www.siliconeintakes.com/index...bed118b2aad529 to which you can order all the vacuum lines you need. The stuff appears to be of good quality and thick walled, FSB guys swear by it.

Looks good, I probably should order some up too, given the amount of vacuum leaks I've already experienced. Might as well just do it all.

Definitely good stuff, but I just buy a spool of 1/8 rubber line for cheap and use as needed.still have most of that 50 foot spool.

I also went with the basic rubber lines. Those plastic lines suck balls when they get old. Silicone will last longer, provided they are stiff enough to not collapse under vacuum. Some of the cheapo ones will suck flat on you.86 Lincoln Town Car (Galactica).
