Hello George, this question is most simple. The place you are loking for is Dillon Music in Woodbridge, New Jersey. They are the best at what they do and I am sure many others on this bbs will back me up when I say that.
There going price for BBb to CC conversions has been around $6000 if you give them the body you want coverted. I had the chance to visit them over the holidays and purchase a tuba and while I was there I had the chance to play a one of there conversions,in which they used a Conn "Monster" Eb body and turned it into a CC. This tuba was originally built for Scott Mendoker. This was the absolute best tuba I had ever played.
You can access Dillons web site from the Tubenet, just got to the Music Organizations page.
Hope you get what you are looking for.
Pete
