Vacuum hoses

I am looking for some strong heat resistant Vacuum Hoses for my FD. I have rubber ones now that i got from stillen.com, and they look to be expanding. Who makes the very best Vacuum lines?

Thanks,
Mike

I have a silicone hose kit and if I could go back, I would have bought the OE hose kit that came with all the required check valves. It not only comes with check valves, but all the hoses are pre-bent/cut to the correct size/shape. The kit itself only runs a little more than $120, IIRC (prices could have gone up). I would recommend that, since the stock rubber hoses on my car lasted well over 100K miles.

I'd recommend www.hightempsilicone.com. They have both silicone and viton hoses. Great quality stuff, and very helpful people to do business with.

That kit (PN# N3A1-13-SHX) does include all the check valves, but only includes 20 or so hoses to the best of my knowledge - and a stock FD has 50-60 vacuum hoses.

I just bought some from www.hosetechniques.com . Not installed yet, but look to be of high quality silicone and affordable.
