go to autozone or advance auto parts, get their thick *** fuel line, as long as it don't touch the downpipe you will be str8, or you can wrap that line with heat wrap

I use stainless braid hose and fittings from Earl's.

You can get it at any Parker Store (industrial supply)

I wouldn't trust my setup to some cheap **** rubber crap from home depot. Don't forget that the hose you use must be able to withstand close to 250F degree oil.

for your return line you want to use 10an at least. if your buying just the rubber hose then i think 10an is 5/8 inch. just make sure you get the high temp hose.
