Default injector swap question???????????

ok so im no expert but i have talked to 4 different shops today and got different answers. im looking at a truck to buy, its an 2005 dodge. but it has bosch factory for the 305 HP 03-04 trucks injectors in it. He bought them new and put them in it. It DOESNT have a chip on it but it does smoke some. I know the 05 injectors are 5 hole and the 04 injectors are 8 hole put i dont know if its hard on the truck. it won't have the right spay pattern? it runs really well but IDK?? thanks for any input, maybe everybody does this IDK??

hmm, im not positive, but i thought that it would hurt a motor running 03-04 injectors in a newer truck. all ask dutsin (my boss) cause he is more knowledgeable with the CR than i am

the spray pattern is different which could lead to melting a piston

Its spraying fuel outside the bowl, not good for it and easy to melt things down if you turn it up or load it heavy.
