Jim, I think you mean Hughes Engines:

http://www.hughesengines.com/

It appears he recently changed his cams from Engle to Crane. The cams he sells are not cataloged by either, but custom. I have had good luck with his older cams. When I was doing engine work for a Pro Truck at a local oval track, his cam had great torque coming off the corners and would pull strong to 7,000 rpm in a 360 small block. I would assume his new designs might be even better. The new Comp Cams Extreme Energy series is designed with similar philosophy and should be awsome with the .904 Chrysler lifters.

>Somebody has to clue me in as to which Mopar Performance cam they consider a "purple cam" . The MP cam I've used the most is the "resto" cam 268/284, either one or three bolt. All that I recall have had a spray of purple paint on them. The other "common" MP cam is the 292 - 509, I've heard some refer to as a "purple" cam too. Ditto the "Hemi" grind 284 - 484 cam. I guess I've always heard of the "purple cam" referred to as any Mopar Performance cam differentiating it from a Comp Cams, Crane, Isky, etc. What's going on that I need to change planets??
