Wood, HQ, and a couple of others for good cam choice.
Not for nothing c-cat, but you can get the 98 HP and 106 TQ out of your 96 cubes with out too much cost. Compression, headwork, cams, and pipe, along with a good tune will have you there, no problem! A lot less labor, too. If you want more than that, then the 103 / 107 is the option, but the dollar per power gain is higher that way, although boring out your stock jugs is the best and cheapest way to go for added cubes. All depends on what you are looking to do.
All the best,
