Default Vacuum hose source

Well it is time to start attaching the V-ram to the motor and hooking up the vacuum lines. I started with a short block, so I do not have any of the vacuum lines. Is there a good online source for hose and all the elbows and connectors?
It seems like you could go broke just buying the tiny elbows and fittings


Thanks,
Emerald

The car runs vac of around 15 psi.

I would just go to autozone and buy 10 ft of the small vac hose and a box of various elbow and tees. It fits and works better than the OEM hard lines and elbows which either harden or have no groove in the hard line which then slips off easily and/or creates vacuum leaks.

Nice groupings BTW.

Thanks axl99. That was the kind of answer I was hoping for. There seem to be a ton of little elbows, and a mixture of hard plastic and rubber lines. It would be nice to stream line.

Still working on tightening the groupings a bit more.

You'll probably need this. I definitely needed it on my v-ram conversion.
