Default cam and no stall?

I was thinking of getting a new cam for christmas but then i thought about it and was wondering would my car run like crap without a bigger stall. I was planning on getting one anyway but after i did the cam install. So would my car okay for a while with the stock stall and a cc503 and does any1 know what kind of gain i would see with just a cam?

Car will run fine with the cam and no stall... but not gonna gain nearly as much ET as it would if you did the stall with it. I would suggest doing the stall before the cam unless you just want the cam sound and you arent doing the cam to race. You will gain as much from the stall alone as you will with the cam alone plus you dont need a tune with a stall

I did a cam before stall and like said above gained almost nothing ET wise, later when I gave it stall I gained a huge amount. Car drove fine, it was a smaller cam in a heavier car though.
