I thought about this till I found all hydraulic hose is only rated at 212*. Some kinds say -40 to 212* (248* max) but still, I wouldn't want it failing on the track since oil temps can get high!

Using the proper fittings made for R14 SS hydraulic hose, you can do the same thing and it's rated to 450*.
