Here are a couple of possible resources for people trying to piece 
together an EFI system with a focus for TR3-4A engines.

Before TWM went out of business they offered DCOEs, intake manifolds, 
and major EFI conversion components, including throttle bodies based up 
the DCOE configuration.

When TWM went out of business they sold their EFI business or 
transformed into Borla Induction

https://www.borlainduction.com

Who produces the DCOE based throttle bodies and other major EFI components.

TWM sold their intake manifold business to Pierce Manifolds, who still 
offers the TWM DCOE conversion kit for the TR four.

https://www.piercemanifolds.com/TRIUMPH_TR3_TR4_HIGH_PORT_WEBER_40_DCOE_p/k131.htm

So you can still get the manifolds, linkage, EFI throttle bodies, 
position sensors & such, all originally designed to work together as a 
system.

itg makes an air filter with holes properly spaced for the TR four using 
TWM/Pierce manifolds and DCOEs or TWM/Borla throttle bodies. The 
critical component is the back plate which I don't think is still being 
mentioned in their web site. If you want to use a itg air filter (I have 
one on my TR3 with TWM manifolds & DCOEs) ask for back plate part number 
28-JC-50.

itg has a formula (for their filters only) that calculates the minimum 
distance between the horn opening and the facing element for no negative 
affect in air flow. The minimum distance is calculated by dividing the 
inner diameter of the air horn by four.

I think this is probably enough to piece together a mechanical fuel 
injection system & put an air filter on it. No idea about a computer to 
add the "E".
