need a lightweight hose for a race car fuel line, is this StartLite stuff meant for that or more like coolant and air?

For racing setups, Eaton Aeroquip StartLite is commonly used as a lightweight flexible line for fuel, lube, coolant, and air service. The FBU0800 version is a -8 dash hose with a 0.44 inch inside diameter, so it fits that general kind of hydraulic connections where a -8 size line is called for.

Running a -8 line on a track car build and wanted to confirm this hose matches up to that dash size before I order a length of it.

the FBU0800 is a -8 dash size with a 0.44 inch inside diameter, so it lines right up with standard -8 fittings and hydraulic connections. It's the Eaton Aeroquip StartLite line, built specifically for racing use, and it covers fuel, lube, coolant, and air line applications. Black outer jacket if that matters for your setup.
