i'm wondering if anyone has found vacuum lines at a brick and morter store? i know some places sell it online, but since I don't know the exact lengths, ordering online is sort of a pain. the place i usually go for parts has some, but only one size.
also, is there anything special about the cloth braiding on the OE line or will silicon work fine? p.s. vacuum only of course, i wouldnt be that stupid to replace the fuel with silicon... |

Or talk to Cap'n Crusty. The shop stocks it. It probably wouldn't be a big deal to copy what's on my 72 to get the proper lengths. I can't speak for him of course, but it's an idea.
