Thanks G

Yep, that's it. The connectors obviously aren't the same so you will need to put new ones on. You will have to do that for any hotend you get though except the OEM.

It is also longer than the stock hotend so you will need a longer screw for the Z index screw. I used this hotend for quite a while before I got my E3D.

It's not worth that price to replace the stock PEEK with another.

Many on this forum have endorsed the all-metal E3D, and you can add me to that list with this posting.

I looked at that one and it looks like a nice Hot end, maybe i should do that one.
Thanks for your time.
