steps per mm on Geeetech A10

Hi All.

I have a geeetach A10,
My layers is not bonding properly after upgradeing to V6 all metal hot end.
I did check my Esteps and Tried different temps also did a PID tune which makes my temp stable at 205.
But still no luck.
I know for a fact that I am not under extruding (I did replace my extruder to a metal extruder as the original one was cracked) and that all is working as is should.

Also I did upgrade to the latest Marlin FW 2.0.1 (It had the A10 prfile already loaded and could just copy and paste both .h files over and upload.)
After I did this I noticed that the Z is moving up to quick and I think I am not getting the 250mm Z build volume. Its more like 220 or close to this.
I recon it could be the Z steps per mm that is not correct.

Can any one suggest a solution or perhaps share your config in marlin.
Here is mine: Please comment on this.
