[Gmecm] 7747 stumbling acceleration when cold

I can check in the log file tonight for the items you asked about.  I was
having major grief when I first installed this because I was given 305
injectors by mistake.  I examined every tiny detail of the install so I'm
pretty sure I don't have any air leaks.  Also bear in mind that it all works
fine when warm.  I know things expand when they warm up, but it sure can't
be anything major.  The thing idles and cruises fine when cold too.  It
really seems like an acceleration thing.

Does anyone know for sure what things need to be changed when using a larger
injector size?  All I changed was the BPW to account for "cop car"
injectors.  Are there other things too?

Thanks.
