Hi Paul - the Meograde head was supplied as a separate unit for the standard colour Magnifax. It was very well regarded, and actually the Magnifax is a wonderful enlarger that will cover up to 6x9. As David said the Meograde is specifically for printing multicontrast B&W, so you'll have no problems there.
Barry Thornton used the Magnifax professionally, and I am sure Roger Hicks and Frances Shultz also use them in preference to anything else.
The 2.8 El-Nikkor, is, like most Nikkors, a good and reliable lens.
Have fun and enjoy the set-up.
Phil
