Fuel Line Insulation

[Guest BobRobb]

I have a 1936 Packard 120. Does anyone know what would be a good substitute for the original fuel line insulation Packard used. My car did not have any on the line when I got it 35 years ago but I have seen some and suspect it was some sort of asbestos material. I would like to avoid some of the offerings of some well-known discount auto parts suppliers because the stuff they sell doesn't look like it would work well (does not look very authentic nor woven very tightly). Thanks in advance.
