Oh, man! When you said your MMGs were "framed" I expected that you had either replaced the frame or reinforced the frame. That is why I did not even address this. What I see in the pictures is side-trimming, which hardly does it, much less with common lumber.
So, there is yet another opportunity still to be tapped. No wonder you could not like the drums!
As you try the range of good comments here, please DO consider really reinforcing the frame, or building a new one. In my case, I simply put oak harwood sticks (search for "Stixbees") and the performance boost was instant, undeniably strong and...extremely cheap.
Of course, if you are planning to sell them and go for the 1.6s, you may not want to alter the MMGs.
I do have to say that to get 1.6s to clearly surpass properly modded MMGs you may have to properly mod the 1.6s.
