Slant 6 mod's

If I skip the cam will my horsepower increase enough to wake up the slant 6 enough to make it fun on the street for cruising? I am not interested in seeing how fast my car will go in a straight line for a quarter mile stretch, but I love to rev a little at the stop light.

Dude. Just chop your muffler (and cat) off. The car sounds like a race car, and it's the cheapest option. It won't go any faster, but it makes a world of psychological difference.
