Otherwise, I believe there would be some sensors to add along with a computer.

Once you go that full TBI swap route, there would be no sense in going back to a carburetor because of all the other stuff you'd be removing.

I think it's a matter of change to TBI now, or just enough to keep it going reliably. Invest a lot of time and effort now, or just enough until a later date of your choosing. I would choose a carbureted engine swap, with minimal time spent on it, and get to using the truck soon.
Don't get me wrong absolutely nothing wrong with TBI... I just have no desire to go that direction right now👍
