I am looking to buy a low priced 3mm e3d3 mm e3D all-metal v6 hot end. It says 3mm3 mm, however I am wondering if I could make it compatible 1.75mm75 mm if I just get a different Bowden tube and Bowden clip.

Is an e3de3D hot-end rated for 3mm3 mm actually machined for said filament diameter, or is such constraint only relating to the diameter of the Bowden clip?
