I would also recommend mounting the bungs as far away from the plenum as
possible, meaning right on top of the valves.  Mists of fuel on hot valves
tend to assist proper atomization, and gives more room in the center of the
manifold for larger plenums.  My 451cid stroker mopar has a 1232 cid plenum,
and my 252cid Buick V6 has a 576 cid plenum.  Though, there is nothing wrong
with mounting the throttle body right where the carb goes with an adaptor
plate, for a street car.  Racing is a different story.
