There are quite a few approaches to EFI on a Healey out there, but this is my favourite ....
Interestingly Steve, having sold this car is doing another and taking a slightly different route to the EFI installation.

Interestingly Steve, having sold this car is doing another and taking a slightly different route to the EFI installation. Yes, I already spoke with Steve about his older red car. His approach was interessting because he kept the original design, EFI integration was quite discreet on engin compartment, but litte bit more fully under rear seat with electonik parts . The new one study is more modern, intake manifold replace SU carburetors and Megasquirt is used as ECU. First of all, I will try to build my own intake manifold, this part is harder, most important than the other steps to build EFI setup. Here is a link with EFI made by NL guy. For me the main difference between Steve and NL guy is ignition. Steve use a legacy distributor with ECU connection while NL guy use modern ignition coil

Someone know if yellow springs have a specific pressure or dedicated for road or race .. or something like that ?
Undoubtedly yes, but without knowing the manufacturer and looking up their comparison table, it would be guess work. As Mr FH said, that little sticker might give a clue, I can make out the Beck bit but not the first word(s)

TY, I will check out One rear brake plate anchor is damaged, I didn't find spare parts on website except on limora. Someone knows if I am able to find only the center ring of brake plate anchor (it is unsolder) or if someone sell a second hand part ?
