For the parts under the engine bay like the catch can bracket, what material do you use?
Thanks! 3D printers are great and immensely helpful. I'm an engineer so I use CAD and the 3D printer quite often for work. Good luck with yours, it's a lot to learn, but there are so many free resources out there now.

I used a high-temp ABS material for the bracket. Speaking of which..
