Default Fuel injection fuel hose

I need a really flexible 3/8" fuel injection line. I have fuel injection hose but it is really stiff. Anyone know of hose that is flexible but won't kink? It will have to make a fairly sharp bend. Thanks.

You can use some 3/8 copper tubing from a plummer too, bends pretty sharp.

Carquest has 300 psi hose. I used it on my LS1/RX7 swap. Don't use copper or aluminum if there is the possibility of the line flexing. It can develope stress cracks and leak.

You can use parker fuel line with the push-in fittings. It has a bend radius of 3" and it costs just over $1/ft. It is rated for 300 psi working pressure. I bought it from a place in florida. If you can't find it locally, I can look through my receipts for the place where I purchased it. I used this instead of paying alot of money for braided hose when you really don't see it.

I certainly don't want to use braided hose, not the look iIwant. Thanks for the suggestions.
