Techflex melts under a heat gun and will melt to your vacuum hoses under engine heat, but the drippy melted plastic all over your engine look is in for 2016, so go for it!

They have a high temp product...

How hot does the vacuum line get? Can you touch it with your hands? If you can then you can use the regular tech flex. I have it on the power and ground wires in engine compartment of my Toyota.

The vacuum line will be cool to the touch, but the engine underneath it is hot and cannot be touched. If the vacuum line rests on or near the engine it will melt the standard techflex after a 30m or so drive. I was unaware of their high temp product line and maybe its worth a try.
