Avatar B-410 with Deltalites

Hi
My first post, please be gentle! I have an opportunity to buy an Avatar B-410 loaded with Eminence Delta-lite 25-10 Neodymium drivers. The cab is rated at 1000 watts @4ohms. I'm pairing it with Fender TB-600 head. I'm all fingerstyle, don't slap and gravitate toward Motown and late Beatles stuff but I really like the quickness of 10's. Do you think this is a good choice? Lastly I wouldn't mind using my old Bassman 100 on this cab on occasion. Would this cab help me get a little more "oomph" out of the Bassman?
 
Kinda.
The amount of power the head produces at 8 ohms is close to enough to reach 10% distortion with the cab. 4 ohms isn't needed.

Far as the Bassman 100
If we are talking tube Bassman
It's always going to be the same 90/100 watts at the proper impedance tap.

Likewise having a 8 ohm 4x10 allows added another 410 in the future which yeilds 4 ohm min for a head. Not always about more power. Eventually more speaker if your reaching high SPL

Believe tube Bassman is 4 ohm tap.
Many have run at 8 ohms. The impedance match technically won't reach full power.
But a 4x10 should sound pretty good
