Imho I felt that a fuel filler neck hose for my application having about 1 inch gap between the plenum and the runner this hose would give the best and longest service life due to its construction. Has no wires inside and is cord imbedded for strength. I have checked this hose under acceleration and it does have the slightest of contraction from vacuum but no more open area I have underneath shouldn't I don't think it will effect its longevity. This just is what I did on mine and it seemed to have worked out very well.Obviously there are many ways to proceed here and all ideas have benefits and each riders setup will be slightly different from the next one.This was the least expensive and the best setup I felt for my application.I was skeptical of using coolant hose due to the fuel contact area (distance) between the plenum and runner on my oldwing.Obviously the lesser of the open area you have such as Hooch's would probably be the best way to go regardless of hose used.</blockquote>
