Default Fuel line hose question

Almost 2 years ago I help a buddy with a TPI C4 change his fuel pump we used new prestone specific fuel injection hose to replace the cracked originals. and when we pulled it out the ethanol fuel we have here completely destroyed the hoses. What high pressure hose can be found that wont dissolve in this crappy gas we have to use here??

Thank you

Dave

You need to get a hose that is rated for submersible applications.
I get mine at NAPA, but others should have it as well.
Be prepared. It's not inexpensive!

Carter,
I don't think the car he is asking about is a ZR-1.
You are correct that on dual pump systems the "Y" should be upgraded to your billet piece to preclude the chance of the plastic part failing as mine did.
If I misinterpreted his question, I digress.
