I've got a Mk 7 from makerbot in my frankencake (cupcake upgraded with 3g5d, 4th gen stepper drivers, acme z rods, bigger power supply, lexan windows, lexan door, z max endstop, and diy heated build platform), works great... I think any direct drive stepper based extruder should work very well for you. I'd stay away from Bowden style designs due to some of the firmware quirks. Speaking of which, be aware the z max endstop stops the z stepper in both directions! My homing script requires me to manually back the z stage off the endstop.
