The twin 600 cfm carbs would certainly seem under taxed feeding a 428- 460 FE with a peak rpm in the mid - to high 5,000 rpm range.
When my Cobra was first ready to drive, it had a single 4-bbl. on a Sidewinder manifold with 1 S&H air filter.

Several years later I put a 2x4's Tunnel Wedge intake on it, and installed a 2nd S&H air filter. Couldn't believe it was the same engine. Very noticeable seat of the pants feel.
