Your using hard lines for vaccum, well on mine all my vaccum lines are soft rubber hosses and one plastic tube that looks like a straw (Im of course referring to my old TPI setup on my LT1 there are some hard vaccum lines).

Try using a heat gun to gently heat the line until it is soft and form it to shape you need. Just make sure you don’t collapse them.
