Never ran one. The thing on single planes is fuel distabution. (sp) If you can even it out, then your in good shape.
Adam is right on a good dual plane. It is best for street, street/strip duty.
The Victor is a higher RPM intake and best suited for a serious build that will take advantage of the higher RPM ceilng caplable of the intake.

IMO, since your building a street strip engine with a 360, I would focus on a torque build. In example;
RPM with a vaccum seconddary carb for an automatic trans, DP's are great for manual box's with not more than 750 CFM
Cam durations not more than 240 duration, 244 pushing it. Use a split pattern cam shaft like a Comp Cam extreme line. I'd go with the hi-lift series and well preped ported heads and 1-3/4 headers, 3 inch exhaust.
Good engine work and a well tuned carb and ignition can be 470 HP.
Proper stall converter if auto is a must for a good luanch.
Rear gear like 4.10's - 4.30's and a 27-28 X 10inch wide tire.
Rear suspension upgrade to S/S Springs or Cal-tracs.

This makes enuff power to blow the tires off through 2 gears if your foot just slams the throttle.

I have this (Very close) build up in my Cuda. Haveing a purple 292 cam, IMO, I could get away with less cam, better cam, better carb (AFB-750) OOTB Edel. heads that could use some improved prep work on them.
Though it did run well. Theres still more in there without going the "Stepping up" route.
