Swapped my 305 TPI to a GM 350 TPI

Recently swapped my engine from a stock 305 TPI to a brand new GM 350 TPI, but I am having running issues my check engine light codes read 33,34 and 42. Car seems to wanna die when engine has been running for a while and I'm not accelerating. I'm thinking some of my running issues may be coming from the injectors because I reused the ones that came with the 305, what do you guys think?

I take it from the 33 and 34 (MAP) codes you are running a 7730 ECM (SD)? You should provide info on your setup so others will be more informed and more able to help. With that being said, check your 5 volt reference at the MAP sensor. All vacuum lines hooked up and in the correct locations? Using the original 19 lb/hr injectors and not compensating for them in the tune, you will be running extremely lean. Probably some of your problem but not all. HTH!

All sensors and ECM are from the 305
