Were the delivery valve o-rings shot also? Were you surgically clean when you did the job? Did you rinse the spring and pressure valve bodies in clean fuel before it went back together?

If you had bad o-rings and rubber particles in the fuel left inside the valve chamber in the IP it could now be in an injector causing a bad spray pattern. If so, a DP could help.

If none of the above applies are you confident you got all the springs in right since they gave you trouble? Others have used a little bit of white grease to help hold them in place.

Cracking a metal fuel line while running and observing idle should help isolate which valve/inj is causing the problem.
