So are you looking for someone to get your current engines up and running or are you giving up on them and having new mills built?

Likely has nothing to do with the engines, its the fuel system and tune that is killing them. Drop the Merc EFI or find someone that can tune them to live. Eddie can handle that...

I'd stick with carbs, avoid EFI.

It really sounds to me like electrical issues. Doesn't take much noise to confuse software. And confused software acting on noise can easily over lean a given injector. Or, noise on the line from the ECU to the injector can also result in no or too little fuel. The higher the power, the less the safety factor, so a little problem results in big dollars.
