Default Lope at Idle

Just installed some 100hp Injectors.....Now when the a/c compressor kicks on or when you barely let out on the clutch or if the engine is under a very light load it will start to lope for 3-5 secs then idle fine again.....as soon as the compressor kicks on again it will lope for 3-5 secs then normal again......is this something to be worried about or just go with the flow.....put about 100 miles on it and still doing it

bigger injectors cause a lope...severity depends on the size of the injector as well as fuel pressure. hows the truck running other than a lope? does it only do this at those times or does it lope some at idle as well? how long does it take it to stop after acceleration?

Only does it at idle....barely hit the fuel and it stops.....only does it when the engine is under a load at idle.....truck runs like a stripped *** ape.....i was just curious and making sure i wasnt damaging something by running it like this
