Question E-cam or TFS Stage 1 ?

Basically I am trying to decide on which cam to go with on the following combo:

stock '86 short block with flat top pistons (45k orig miles)
TFS Twisted Wegde heads
'93 Cobra upper/lower intake
65 mm throttle body
70 mm mass air meter
1.6 roller rockers
stock 19lb injectors and fuel pump (for now...limited on $$$)

What I am trying to accomplish is getting a combo that will get me into the 12's, be reliable for the street, and even possibly be emissions legal.

What are some opinions out there...the Ford E-cam or the TFS Stage 1 cam? Any first hand experience with a combo like this?
Are there other cams I should be considering?

Any input would be appreciated...and it doesn't have to be limited to the cam only.

Thanks.

'86 black notch 5.0 5-speed
the only factory option is rear defrost
45,000 original miles

FMS 3.73's
Auburn Posi
Moser 31 spline axles
HPM Megabite Jr's
HPM upper c/a's
Global West subframes
Pro 5.0 shifter
Flowmaster 2-chamber cat-back
Autometer tach & shift lite
'88 spindles, rotors, calipers, & struts

waiting to go in:

MAC equal shorties
MAC h-pipe
'93 Cobra upper & lower intake
65 mm throttle body
