Default Using Sullivan proflex fuel line for the clunk line

Does anyone know if you can use the new sullivan proflex fuel line in the fuel tank of a turbine or would there be to much suction pressure and collapse the line?
Thanks for any input!!

That seems to be a great question...
I am not sure what kind of suction the
turbine pump makes... hopefully someone
will chime in with an answer I too am interested
in knowing...

I doubt it would collapse, Skippy, in view of the fact that it hardy stretches at all. Just trying to get "standard" ProFlex over a 1/8" piece of brass tubing is a bear... not to mention if there's a retainer barb involved. :-/
