Published material guidance; still check heat, UV, load, and printer compatibility.
A planning starting point only; wall count, orientation, and geometry often matter more than infill.
Choose the needed variant, then slice it for grams, cost, and print time.
Saved setup guidance is used for material, infill, support, and per-file recommendation text; editable numbers are planning estimates only.

I initially tried to print this https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3887203 but it didn't work out so I designed my own that doesn't require supports. I use the same hose that is referenced in the other build. I also added a set of adapters for the drivers side vent. The angled drivers side adapter does require supports under the outlet that hangs over the build plate. Dorman 708-083 Use ABS or PLA or other high temp material as suggested sas64.
