Default New converter?

I've got a Vig 2800, which when I bought it, I was told Vig's tend to stall a little higher than they actually are labeled - the 2800 is more of a 3200 and the 3200 is more of a 3500, etc..

Anyway, I'm thinking about a new cam and maybe a new converter..

Current setup:

Fast Toys Ram Air
LS1 Motorsports Lid
Ported TB
LS6 Intake
PowerBond UD Pulley
TR224 112LSA Cam
Texas Speed Stage 2.5 5.3L heads
XS Stainless Long Tubes..
Off Road Y
GMMG exhaust
Vigilante 2800 stall
Stock GM 3.42

I guess I'm just trying to decide if it'd be worth it/noticeable to go to something like a 3500 or a 4000 stall?

The car is 100% street driven, and while not a daily driver, it's not a strip car by any means..

What do you guys think?
