OP: you asked and I told you. Earl's Pro-Lite 350 is NHRA approvred. Works with pump gas. The only line you should need a Teflon line for is race gas.

I'd never cheap out on fuel stuff. Stay with the big three (maybe 4) names. Aeroquip has always made top notch stuff.
Just some comparison info:
Earl's
Constructed in the USA, the Pro Lite 350 hose has a tough, abrasion resistant Nylon sheathing, bonded to the textile inner braid embedded in the synthetic rubber liner. This gives the hose incredible flexibility while maintaining the ability to withstand high vacuum and hot oil temperatures.
Pro Lite 350 hose will work with EARL'S Swivel Seal, Auto Crimp and Auto Fit Hose ends exclusively. The use of other manufacturers hose ends is not recommended and may compromise the pressure capabilities and durability of the hose. Insist on the brands you trust, EARL'S Pro Lite 350 hose and Swivel Seal, Auto–Fit or Auto Crimp hose ends.
Installation Notes
Fuel manufacturers may have added any number of new unpublished additives to their blends. It is therefore difficult to know how the tube compound used in the inner liner of our Pro–Lite 350 or any other brand of elastomeric hose will react with a specific fuel. Because of the unknowns described above, we are unable to guarantee that the hose listed is the best possible product to use with any specific fuel. If in doubt use teflon lined hose. Pro–Lite 350 hose is not to be used with brake fluid.
Features
Highest Pressure Lightweight Rubber Lined Hose Available
Half the Weight of Traditional Stainless Braid Hose
Maximum pressure rating of 350 psi
1400 PSI Burst Pressure
-40° F to +300° F Operating Temperature Range
Holds 27 hg Vacuum
Constructed In USA
Abrasion Resistant Nylon Sheath
Easy to Cut and Work With
Synthetic Rubber Liner
Incredible Flexibility
Withstands Hot Oil Temperatures
