Just about any auto supply store( Autozone, Pep Boys, Advance Auto Parts) should have regular rubber vac lines.

Are you sure you don't want to jump on the Viton hose bandwagon? https://www.rx7club.com/group-buy-center-69/viton-hose-kit-fd-sequential-turbos-573087/ Sure it's pricey, but it's great stuff.
