the 1500 included all the parts from ISC required to build a hammermeg head - lid plate, sensor carriage & retaining plate, solenoid & swagelok connector bits, hud, etc.

If you send Kevin your old head, you don't need to pay anything to ISC.
Is this an option to convert a COPIS Meg to a full blown ECCR?

Yes. As Mark says others have done this. Some because using the copis is the most cost-efficient approach to building a hammermeg with all new components. My understanding is that Leon won't sell you 'everything but electronics'. You have to buy some form of electronics from ISC.

Or you could just buy a HammerHead CCR and get everything I've built into mine for half the price....

As I said, if it was available when I started, I would have gone that route. But now, after building what I have, I can't justify the cost of purchasing the HHCCR plus crossover training to get effectively what I already have.

That doesn't mean I don't appreciate the HHCCR....

Ahhh, c'mon. We'll make you a special deal. You must have a pound of flesh left somewhere....

more than a pound I'm afraid....

Seriously though. If I were to get another 'breather, it's going to have a different fundamental configuration.

Tim,

Trust me that the '73 hemi' looks better in the garage than on the road. Same for the MK-15...

Re: hammerhead for meg

ok looks like an expensive proposition to hammerhead the eccr meg. if you go the copis route, essentially it is the same $5K on top of the cheaper copis unit, am i right? on a different note, how many guys using the eccr meg with a VR3/ HS explorer for deco? and if so, do you fly the computer w/ manual set points or plumb for a 4th cell in the counterlung?

i am looking to get either a meg or an optima. i like certain things about the optima but some things i don't. i know the new hammerhead/golem gear eccr seems very attractive, but i am reluctant to purchase a brand new on the market ccr. i would like to see some track record on the unit first

this will be my first 'breather, so all help is appreciated
