I recently skinned some bad fletchings off of my carbons and replaced them with the shrink fletchings with blazer type vanes (smaller). Shooting broadheads, the ass end of the arrow seems to fly all over when going to the target. Target points flew fine. Switched back to longer vanes last night and they shot straight. Any tips on tuning for the smaller vanes? Or a website that can point me in the right direction?

Your bow is either out of tune, or you have fletching contact on the arrow rest, or both. I suggest paper tuning your bow

I shoot them and they shoot absolutely perfect for me

Blazer vanes are stiffer than longer vanes. I would look for rest contact at first. They are also a little taller. Best way to check contact is to use a white spray on deodorant, then look for markings.

They work great for me, as well as many others. Easy to install, and no need for an expensive fletching tool.
