        <div>That's great info, very extensive.&nbsp; Months ago I asked ITG=

          UK if they had one in stock (NLA in the "colonies").&nbsp; They
          said that they had no stock (last sale was 14 years ago), so
          it would be bespoke and cost 71 UK pounds plus carriage, etc.
          Needless to say I declined.</div>

    <p>I bet they have the pattern on file. It is just a sheet of&nbsp;
      aluminum with holes drilled in it. They should be able to make
      them up on demand cheaper than that. But maybe they have a min.
      price for specials.</p>
    <p>At worst someone could just trace their back plate and hand it to
      someone who has the special tools to cut one or more out.<br>

e
          are a couple of possible resources for people trying to piece
          <br>
          together an EFI system with a focus for TR3-4A engines.<br>
          <br>
          Before TWM went out of business they offered DCOEs, intake
          manifolds, <br>
          and major EFI conversion components, including throttle bodies
          based up <br>
          the DCOE configuration.<br>
          <br>
          When TWM went out of business they sold their EFI business or
          <br>
          transformed into Borla Induction<br>
          <br>
          <a href=3D"https://www.borlainduction.com"; rel=3D"noreferrer" targ=
et=3D"_blank" moz-do-not-send=3D"true" class=3D"moz-txt-link-freetext">https=
://www.borlainduction.com</a><br>
          <br>
          Who produces the DCOE based throttle bodies and other major
          EFI components.<br>
          <br>
          TWM sold their intake manifold business to Pierce Manifolds,
          who still <br>
          offers the TWM DCOE conversion kit for the TR four.<br>
          <br>
          <a href=3D"https://www.piercemanifolds.com/TRIUMPH_TR3_TR4_HIGH_PO=
RT_WEBER_40_DCOE_p/k131.htm" rel=3D"noreferrer" target=3D"_blank" moz-do-not=
-send=3D"true" class=3D"moz-txt-link-freetext">https://www.piercemanifolds.c=
om/TRIUMPH_TR3_TR4_HIGH_PORT_WEBER_40_DCOE_p/k131.htm</a><br>
          <br>
          So you can still get the manifolds, linkage, EFI throttle
          bodies, <br>
          position sensors &amp; such, all originally designed to work
          together as a <br>
          system.<br>
          <br>
          itg makes an air filter with holes properly spaced for the TR
          four using <br>
          TWM/Pierce manifolds and DCOEs or TWM/Borla throttle bodies.
          The <br>
          critical component is the back plate which I don't think is
          still being <br>
          mentioned in their web site. If you want to use a itg air
          filter (I have <br>
          one on my TR3 with TWM manifolds &amp; DCOEs) ask for back
          plate part number <br>
          28-JC-50.<br>
          <br>
          itg has a formula (for their filters only) that calculates the
          minimum <br>
          distance between the horn opening and the facing element for
          no negative <br>
          affect in air flow. The minimum distance is calculated by
          dividing the <br>
          inner diameter of the air horn by four.<br>
          <br>
          I think this is probably enough to piece together a mechanical
          fuel <br>
          injection system &amp; put an air filter on it. No idea about
          a computer to <br>
          add the "E".<br>
