Yes. The braided lines are mostly for show. More durable, yes, and more resistant to heat, yes, but unless you drive your car at the track for 24 hours strait then park on the sun you dont have to worry about anything.

if you are going to be replacing the secondary rail and FPR, then the answer is no, you can not use "only" your OEM lines as you will be adding a FPR that is not attatched to you new secondary rail. you will make a line from the secondary rail to the regulator, and another from the regulator back to the hardlines at the firewall whether they be braided or not.

you can not have more than 12in of rubber (non-metalic or non-SS braided) fuel line front to back of the car. rubber line is allowed for conection purpose only. FPR must be mounted at least 6in from bellhousing. fuel line around the bellhousing (except braided line) must be securely mounted and enclosed in a 16in length of steel tubing with a 1/8 in minimum wall thickness and can not be run in the tunnel. Thanks Kevin, Sorry for not mentioning that. 
Some people will never make it to a track and will insist on using the cheapest route (read: rubber line). I dont thinks it is very smart, but its their car....
