Worst case would be that the printer doesn't hit the required accuracy - IIRC, the spacers out of the Fortus ran something like +/- .002 - so you might need to sand or tweak the parts a bit for a good fit.

Not criticisizing you for choosing to 3d print these, but for teams reading wanting to make similar parts, they could easily be turned on a lathe out of plastic really fast.
While those ideals might exist in black and white perfection; in the real world, with very rare exception, they can only be implemented as compromises in shades of gray. - gblake [more]
