you could always gut the existing carbs and drop throttle body injectors into each one controlled by a megasquirt unit.

I copied these pictures years ago from a TR6 site so cannot credit them as i didnt copy that info. As I remember they gutted both zenith carbs, made an adaptor plate that went between the diapragm cover and the body and dropped in 2 GM TBI's. Once complete and wired they looked original (but 1/2 inch taller and 2 wires coming out of each) here are the pics I copied.

removed the cover, spring and piston




put on the adaptors



drop in the injectors


wire them up



and it all looks original but runs like a modern car



just some thoughts - good luck
