99.9% likely to be z1000a with the two fuel pipes, could also be Gs1000 but they usually have one central fuel pipe as per the later z1000 28's .

Zman those carbs are Mikuni 26 mm off a 77 Z1000A1.
Show me the throat closest to the engine and we will be able to tell if they are possibly 28mm.

That mixture screw performs the same function as the usual air screws on the side, however, this screw controls the fuel, rather than controlling the air.
"High-top" Mikunis of this era all had that option built into the die-casting.
