vaccum lines

almost done converting my TBI to TPI now i just have to run vaccum lines at work (advance auto parts) we have the hard lines but they are rolled up any ideas on how to get them to lay flat and how to get them to make tighter bends without breaking them
thanks

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.
