There you go... The 2x4 setup is for sale, because the previous owner tried to run 2 double pumpers on a 302. My bet is the carburetors are 450 Holleys. Would you run a 900 CFM mech secondary carburetor on a 302? That's essentially what he was trying to do. With few exceptions, it's going to run like crap.

So, if you buy this setup, plan on buying 2 new carburetors, because you won't be able to use the mech secondary carburetors. Factor in another $1200 - $1500 for new carbs, and it will run very nice. But expect to spend the extra money to make it run right.

There are many options for 1x4, and as others have said, it depends on what you have, and what you want to do with it. Given that we're talking Cobras, it's hard to do better than the high rise Cobra dual plane intake. You can make more HP with other intakes, but they will always look like a hot rod intake. You can even do a turkey pan and a single S&H air cleaner to complete the look.
