BANGLES
GEARS and LAGERS just after
(7-3)*25*10-(10-7)=997 (1 off)
CHEATS
FUNSTER and I suppose FUNKSTER (not declared) is out of the question?
(10+5)*25=375
MURDERS
(9-4)*50+8-6/6=257
x bombed out here

FUNKSTER turns out to be valid. Amusingly, I missed it entirely, despite it almost being written out in the selection as presented.

1. TANGELOS
2. GLARES
3. 999 = (3*10 + 10)*25 - 7/7; a bit after time: 998 = (10*(25 - 10) - 7)*7 - 3
4. CAHOOTS*
5. TUREENS
6. 375 = (10 + 5)*25
7. DIMEROUS
8. 257 = 6*(50 - 8) + 9 - 4
9. -- wasn't even close to getting this; the answer is NOVELISED
