I have two of the 1400 cfm autolite inline carbs mounted on a doug nash intake manifold. I am planning on using this setup on my Boss 351 motor to be installed in a Cobra. I am looking for feedback on using this complete setup in a BRM Cobra, made in Ontario Canada.

What are you going to do with the car? Street driven or race only? 2800 CFM is a heck of a lot of carb. You will undoubtedly have tuning issues if you plan to drive it on the street. It's gotta look awesome, though.

A complete setup, 2 carbs and the matching intake sold on ebay recently for something north of $5,000 if I remember right.
It is basically a weber setup, with each barrel of the 4V feeding just one intake tract, so the massive cfm isn't an issue, in fact, in this design, it is probably just right.
Which brings us to the question of street use. Yes, you can use them on the street.
But this is all pretty moot as apparently the whole setup is for sale on ebay:
