Default Stang wont stay running with new injectors

Ok guys a little help would be great.
Quick info on the car first.
1992 stang
5.0 5spd
ported stock e7 heads
Edelbrock performer intake with 70mmTB/EGR and C&L inlet tube and 76mm MAF sensor
Ford racing E-CAM & 1.6 rockers
255lph fuel pump
adjustable fuel press regulator
100hp dry shot NOS kit

So.. here goes, I bought some 24lb injectors and the correct flo tube for the MAF sensor. I have everything installed but the damn car just doesnt want to stay running. It just keeps stalling out. I took swapped back in the stock 19lb injectors and MAF tube and the car runs great.
Ideas?
Thoughts?
HELP?
Thanks guys

make sure when you swap the stuff back on that you didn't have a vaccum leak somewhere, also are you using a c and l meter?? if so , some have claimed that clocking the meter corrects such an issue, personally I never use c and l meters

my 94 stalls on me, it has 24lb injectors. It idles rough, rpms up and down until it stalls out, it does a little better when you're driving, but when you get to lower RPMs trying to pull out it stalls out and dies, and it will dying over and over unless you hold down the gas and get it going forward.

Please start your own thread in the tech section and throughly describe your problem on when it does and doesn't happen..

Thanks!

Seems to be ok with old injectors and maf. C&L maf would be my first interest.

Yes it runs good with the stock injectors and the C&L meter. Just when i change out the new injectors and the new calibration tube in the C&L it runs bad
