Brian,

The RG-142 is a good choice because of the high temperature resistance of the Teflon insulation, however, the large diameter of 0.195" means it will be pretty stiff and rather difficult to bend and route in tight spaces. Teflon-insulated coax is stiffer than typical polyethylene-insulated coax.

RG-179 and RG-180 are smaller in OD [at 0.100" and 0.140"] and also Teflon-insulated for high-temperature service. They are much easier to bend and route.
