Default Which cams??

I have pretty much made up my mind to go with the Steen Racing PI stage II package. The kit comes with stage II ported heads, springs, PI intake, necessary hardware. The only thing i can think of that i will need is a set of cams. Here are the specs on the heads:

What kind of gains do you think I could expect going from a non PI GT...to the steen racing stage II heads, PI intake, and vt stage II cams??

Another thing, on vt's website...for the stage II cams it states that for autos they recommend atleast a 2800 stall in autos and atleast 3.73 gears. I have 4.10's, but no stall...do you think this is a big deal or must i absolutely need the stall before putting in the cams??
