Only if you have the computer reprogamed. The pulse with will be for 19lb injectors and the larger ones firing for the same length will make it run rich.
I haven't seen 21lb injectors. I am assuming that you are refering to 24lb injectors.

Yep, they are 19lb. 24lb came in The Cobra Mustangs, but they had better heads, larger camshaft, larger MAF meter and a recalibrated computer. I believe that the TurboCoupe and SuperCoupe T-Birds also had 24lb injectors.
