Had a hard time trying to track down files, and even now I am still trying to find the *.STL file.
For the time being though, I can provide the G-Code for direct to printer settings... but USE AT YOUR OWN RISK.
gcode is tweaked for my printer and may not be the same across the board... however you may be able to convert using your preferred slicer.

just be certain to change the file type from "txt" to "gcode"

These are really easy to make out of steel. I made mine with scrap 1/4 on the bottom and tube stock for the mount.

There are a lot of really good designs for printing in this thread. Here is another.

A version of a center console for mounting on the tunnel. This is made for two phones and a key fob with extra room for other stuff.

Here is flat-bottom version of our original design. This works well forward of the shifter on the tunnel cap.

If I were to have one of these printed is the measurement in MM or SAE?

Has anyone a 3d model of the SS fuel rail cover? They are quite expensive. For that money I mill myself one out of aluminum.

I don’t know how well a 3D printed cover will hold up directly mounted to the engine. Maybe printed ABS will work, but I don’t think PETG will work, and definitely wouldn’t trust PLA.
It would also take a printer with a large bed size to fit that part.

Not a fuel rail cover but I have a PC print over my coil packs (mounted directly to the valve cover) and it's held up great for almost 2 years now.

I'd be interested in a few of these items, but I don't have a 3D printer...

I will gladly pay someone who can do this for me please? Just PM me please!

I do not have a printer either but I used Craftcloud. I have had them print several items with no issues. Site is very easy to use. Some times hard to pick what material to use. Threr are a lot to choose from.

If you have a few items you want I can give you a bulk price probably a little bit better then CraftCloud, just shoot me a DM with the files you want and your address for shipping and I can give you a quote.

Oh wow! Yea, I can definitely do that instead and it would be much cheaper as well! Do you remember what dimensions of the bar stock you bought and about how long of a piece did you cut?

I used some 1-1/2"x1/4" bar stock I had lying around from a previous project. I think the shortest you can get is 3' from the home improvement stores (Menards/Lowes/Home Depot). I think I cut a piece just short of 3". The printed one is in mm but if you convert it to inches, this is what you get for dimensions from the file:

49034


Even though the bar stock was narrower and slightly thicker, both bolt holes fit within the inch-and-a-half width and at 1/4" thick it still fit in the slot on the back of the pedal. So cut to length, stick it in the pedal to mark the holes, and drill.

Any material would work, I just happened to have steel on hand. Even wood could suffice in a pinch.

Partially pointing out you can get smaller chunks for less money at Grainger than home improvement places. H.I. stores are a terrible place to buy raw materials or fasteners if you aren't in a hurry.

Very true. They never seem to have an ideal size either. If you are a fabricator, you usually need lengths longer than 3' and if you are just a tinkerer, 3' is a 10-year supply.

My 3d printed pedal extender broke after 2 years of use, I suggest just making one out of bar stock, it will last much longer.

I'll post this again here as it might be lost in the build thread where we were talking about it. When printing this extension, you have to pay attention to how you print it as it impacts the structural integrity. The picture indicates you didn't print it with enough walls.

Minimum of 70% infill, 7 walls, 7 top / bottom layers.

I couldn't tell you how it was printed, as I passed the file along and got a part back. I'm not knocking those who use it, but it was cheaper and easier for me to make one out of steel. That picture is the STL file posted in this thread, so if it is insufficient someone with the appropriate skills should update it so it is sufficient for use by others.

If you have a 3D printer and know how to use it, that's probably the cheapest/easiest way. I'm one of the ones who doesn't have a printer and I've used my $7 piece of bar stock for 2 projects now and still have 80% of it left, so I'll keep recommending it to those who don't 3D print or have access to someone who will do it for them at cost.
