I don't see a problem with using a carb with a TPS as a throttle body.

1000cc throttle body is wayyy too big for a 75cc motor

I'm about to do the same to a SU carby ie a HIF44, you don't say what your carb is so this might not be relevant but have a look here: http://www.pattonmachine.com/ for more info. He only makes the adapter for some SU's and Stromberg's. The GM mini injectors will work with MegaSquirt as a low impedance injector. They are relatively low pressure at 12PSI, but take more pressure up to 20PSI (so I'm told).
