Need opinion on ECM problem

I know this has probably been discussed over and over again but I want to make sure that I get an answer that is specific to my problem.

I have an 87 Formula that I took a 305 out and put in a 355. The engine is brand new, just rebuilt last summer. I'm using all of the TPI stuff from the 305 and am currently using the 305 injectors. I have a set of LT1 injectors laying in my garage, the 24lb ones.

I thought I saw a website on here that would program a chip for you that would accomodate the larger injectors and the deletion of the AIR system. Anybody know what I'm talking about?

OR, could I possibly grab a whole ECM out of an 87 Vette that had these 24lb injectors? OR, should I just run this engine with the 305 injectors? I just have a feeling that I'm losing out a little on this new motor with running the 305 injectors. If none of those would be the right way to go, please give me some opinions on what I should do. I just want to make sure that this runs properly and I am able to get the full potential out of it.

Any opinions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
