No!
You really need "fuel injection" rated fuel hose that's rated to more like 150psi to 200psi.
Even at NA fuel rail pressures, the hose will deteriorate and start to leak within a few months.
Do you want to risk this?
I've seen it happen.

Banned. I got OWNED!!!
I did use some for a while on my car. I didn't know at the time that you shouldn't use it. It did hold up fine, but I was working on the car the whole time so it never really saw any stress when started. IF you want to just throw some on there to get it running or something (stationary) then I guess it's up to you (not suggested). If you do, KEEP A FIRE EXTINGUISHER VERY VERY CLOSE.
However, I say it's not worth it. Not to mention dangerous.
