Mustang Performance Handbook by William Mathis has a very good chapter on cams and cam selection.
The E cam is a little aggressive, but I will be going with it or something very close to it's lift.
My B cam is good, likes to idle around 800-850 though, sounds great and is very streetable.
The E cam is still streetable if you can handle minor tuning on your own and it will want to idle a little higher, I have read around 950-1000 rpm. It is very "lopey" and may not tolerate weather extremes as well as a milder cam.
Good Luck...
