I'm running the same heads In my 72 400auto. 383CI with XE262, 9.2:1CR. I run low 13's at the track with street tires. My best run is a 13.004 , 2.055 60 ft. 106MPH. Just can't break into the 12's. Stock stall and trany.

Dart Iron Eagle heads are in many opinions, the best street iron head OUT OF THE BOX. I've seen a few articles in CHP and such about ported Iron Eagle heads and they've flowed extremely well.
They're cast pretty thick to allow for more porting and polishing. As soon as money provides I will be throwing those on my already stout 360.

Might want to look at Sportsman II heads according to this test they flow better than the Iron Eagles on the intake side.

I can personally say the Sportsman II are great heads and out of the box got me to within 5 HP of 300 at the rear wheels with an L48 :D
