I went with a Trianglelab CHCT-OT hot-end with the ZS MK8 Plus nozzle (which is actually a CHT, or at least mine was). Below are some links. I'm not affiliated in any way, I just bought these on my own. You can buy directly from Trianglelab, but shipping is VERY slow (a few weeks), or directly through my affiliate Amazon link. If you buy through Amazon, you might want to also get a 'real' CHT nozzle from Bondtech which would most likely get you some additional flow rate. I just went with the cheapest route though.
