On the EFI332 list there have been group purchases for various ICs. 
 Reaching 50 pieces shouldn't be too hard, especially if there are some V8 
applications out there.  And at 50 pieces or more, the price might even be 
reasonable.  How much does Cherry want?

PS.  I still say use a power MOSFET (and an external ballast resistor if 
using low resistance injectors).  Eliminates the dependance on these damn 
custom ICs.
