Problems; Fuel with ethanol

Just looking for advice and suggestions on running ethanol free fuel and what to do when you can't find it? My fresh built 402 with an Edelbrock 750 runs great with ethanol free gas but not so good on 93 Octane 10% ethanol gas blend. I've tried the Lucas ethanol treatment with no real success. I just bought the Stabil Marine ethanol treatment and used that on a 200+ mile trip and wasn't happy with it either. What are some of you doing about ethanol blended gas and are you having problems with idle, acceleration, and starting? I'm going to call Edelbrock tomorrow and ask if there is a special rebuild kit for running ethanol blended fuels. Thanks for any comments or suggestions.
