I wouldn't bother. Look into waterproofing the electronics. Put the ECU in the cab. A mate runs a racer with a EFi Ford Serria engine in it and that is fine.

You won't get the same flat torque curve with a carb'd engine as you will with a fuel injected one. Also carbs are more prone to fuel mixture problems on rough ground or steep slopes.

As I say spend your time looking at waterproofing :)

Just stick a Peugeot or Izuzu Diesel in it and a snorkle
Remember it will come in handy even if you never use it
