318 build with XE268 AND 302 heads

more than stock. Holley 600, dual plane intake and headers, dual 2.5 exhaust.
Looking for the right cam for good low end torque. Just a stop light to stop light car.
I was under the impression that the xe268 was popular with 318's. It has a nice lope as well.
I was also looking at the Huges Whiplash, but the 302 head bring compression up to 9:1. Whiplash wants 8.5 or lower.
I'm open to cam suggestions. Not looking for top end HP, just bottom end torque and nice lope
