Big Injectors in Little Engine?

Are there any comments on this line of thought? ->>>

What if I was to put a set of SVO 24 or 30# injectors in a 305 TPI MAF?
They're cheap, and it would offer me peace of mind (kind of like the new
harness did). Could they be tamed to work well in a 305?

The rationale is to replace the existing suspect injectors while planning
(budgetarily) for future larger-displacement applications. What kind of
issues am I likely to run into? Obviously, the FI sizing params will need to
be spec'd out. S-Ware mods are within grasp. There may be more fundamental
issues though, right?

I'm guessing there may be some problems with the pulse width correction
requirements at small-width ranges, because the larger injectors will be
open for a much shorter duration particularly at idle. Thus, the effect of
delays and such opening/closing may become more significant and require
compensation. Perhaps as the pulse width becomes quite small at idle (like
500RPM 305 would ask for), the fuel delivery would become inconsistent as a
result of the predominant open-close time. There has been discussion here
recently on related issues, so I wanted to feed from your experiences if
possible.

Since I'm considering this near-term, I wanted to place it before the group
for comment and judgement. All answers welcomed.
