Welcome. 
On the 3.0CL, you can expect about a 1.5" drop.
Most people don't need a camber kit with the Pro-Kit springs, however, mine does.
Your stock struts will be ok, but why not replace them at the same time you swap springs? It won't cost you any extra labor (or time if you're doing the install yourself). I chose KYB AGX adjustable struts.
Good luck!

It will drop the car around 1.5 settled. New shocks are a must with any new spring other than aftermarket. You will be ok for a while, but eventually they will wear out and blow. Usually you won't need a camber kit unless you have a 3.0.

As soon as you put on aftermarket springs, you will expodentially decrease the life of your struts. Mine blew in one week (granted, I trimmed the bump stops too short)!
