There is nothing in this code perl couldn't do alone nor awk.
Does x-times mean you give a value and it reads the values from values.exp that number of times, ie. always those 2 over and over and add these to those 2 output files?

If yes and I understood it correct, then here some awk code (5 times):
Code:
# awk 'NR==1 {a=$1} {b=$1} END{p1="1 1000"; p2="0.0"; for(x=1; x<=5; x++){print "Processing configuration",x,"..."; print p1,a,p2 >> "test"x".exp"; print p1,b,p2 >> "test"x".exp"}}' values.exp
# cat test1.exp
1 1000 1.2 0.0
1 1000 1.2 0.0
1 1000 1.2 0.0
1 1000 1.2 0.0
1 1000 1.2 0.0
# cat test2.exp
1 1000 1.4 0.0
1 1000 1.4 0.0
1 1000 1.4 0.0
1 1000 1.4 0.0
1 1000 1.4 0.0

In your code you check for some special NR and have some other values as described in the output example, but maybe you can alter/implement it.
