i only use 1/4" fuel line for my vac hoses.. never had a problem with it, plus it doesn't degrade under high heat like i've had the thin rubber vacuum hose do.. it's a little more expensive the first time, but i've never had to replace it..

Go to your local truck dealer or repair shop and buy some push lock fittings and dot line that is your best bet at getting a great hose that will not collapse and will hold up just fine.Paintball guns use them also I think they are called macro fittings.
