Hi Alan, Why not just keep your lights and get a flash meter? Once you get the lights setup and try them out using a meter and get some test shots back you'll find that all of the parts of the studio setting (lights, camera subject), have a certain configuration that you will use over and over, this includes exposure. If you are working in a fixed location just use tape to put marks down for your favorite setups and the exposures will always be the same for a particular setup. There is no magic in the 550EX auto exposure and even less control when compared to your monolights.
