I’d go that way.
Caveat - I fuel injected my red 6 so I have a little familiarity with the process though.
The 250 has an engine swap, so it’s silly fast.

The Brit versions were fuel injected. I suppose you could buy the original system from the UK and install it over here, but maybe it was Lucas and crap. Not sure.
Dad's runs great properly tuned on the car. Biggest thing he did was had the distributor custom tuned (sent out to a service). After messing with the carbs for 2 years that made the major difference in getting it running really well in all temps and conditions that tuning the carbs never could.
Remember the old car saying "Most carburetor problems are electrical".
Here's an article on installing Throttle body fuel injection, a 5-speed Toyota transmission, and a Nissan LSD in a TR6: https://www.hemmings.com/stories/article/improving-the-tr6-1975-triumph-tr6
