Get about 1000' of 1/8" fuel line from Kragen and go nuts. You'll need some different sizes too, but mostly you'll need 1/8".

i used some NAPA autopartstore fuel line for one of my radiator/coolant lines... durable stuff comes in various sizes at NAPA:mod:

I've used both of these sizes and they fit most of the ports but I haven't tried fuel line before.
1/8" (0.125") (3.175mm)
5/32" (0.15625") (3.96875mm)
You do want a hose though with a THICK wall so that it will resist collapsing under vacuum.

If I remember correctly the distributor vacuum diaphragm had 1/8" and that the 5/32" was a tad loose when I tried it.
