I have an '87 5kcstq as well, and have the SJM 1.8 bar upgrade.  I have tried
an old one off of a parts car and promptly blew that one in two weeks time
after blowing the previous one at Lime Rock.  I would not recommend an old one,
seeing as how it is likely to be dried/cracked/etc.

I would talk to Mark at www.germanautoparts.com.  I think he has them for less
than $40.  I bought two from him, and haven't had any problem with the first
one, which included two hot days at Summit Point.

I did hear from someone at the NEQC run at Lime Rock this year that Intended
Acceleration has some sort of reinforced hose, but I have contacted them and
they said they didn't.

good luck
