I've done a few under hood installs that worked out ok. One was an eclipse that was pretty tight and no problems. I think your lines would fail before the valves.
Early in my days of baggin stuff ( about 12 years ago) I did an S-10 with this white vinyl tubing that was used for the air actuated roll-up doors on a car wash bay. the exhaust exited the muffler with a down turn right in front of the rear axle and melted a hole in a line for a rear bag. Switched it out to DOT synflex line and wrapped it with old peice of heater core hose and NEVER had another problem.

If you're really concerned, better safe than sorry, look into a heat shield tin between the two but you should be fine.
