New Heater Block Design Has Gap?
I got the upgrade kit listed here: http://shop.prusa3d.com/forum/original-prusa-i3-mk2-f23/-tipp-buyers-guide-to-new-v6-hotend-t1876.html#p14602

However I noticed that the heater block is designed differently. Specifically, in the Prusa version, there is some filler metal in between the nozzle and the heat break. In this new model there isn't, leaving a gap.
I assume this is going to be an issue but I don't know how I should resolve it. See attached photos for a visual look of what I am referring to.

That isn't an E3D nozzle so I wonder if it is shorter than the E3D originals.
The threads on the nozzle look pretty short.
Do you have the stock nozzle to compare with?

Ah yep, you are right. I didn't even notice I had a different one installed. Must have bought some crappy ones 🙁
