Hughes Whiplash Camshaft

This is the setup I truly want to run. I love the look of it. I am so happy to see that two factory air cleaners fit. it looks amazing. I am looking mainly for bottom end grunt. My little wagon is not going to be built to out run an ls or anything but I do want better red light to red light performance. I prefer more torque over hp personally. i have been looking at building a "long rod" /6 ever since I got the car from my brother. it is mostly all original and I really don't want to V8 swap it. I have fallen in love with the slant. I guess I need to just buy Dutra's book and do some more reading. I don't expect to have a super choppy idle but a little bump would be nice.

Biggest bang would be the Oregon cams 2106 (easy), Dutra RV10RDP (hard if Doug lost his stock in the fire) and the Dutra duals with the pipes run back at least behind the transmission cross member before the collector back into one pipe (much harder). Easier if willing to go to a mini starter but I am on a mission to make this work. Make sure you time the cam.
