Adjustable caster/camber on the Boss?

I haven't read anything on the adjustability of the caster/camber on the regular or LS Boss. Does anyone know how much, if any, negative camber is built into the front on the Boss? Does it come with adjustable caster/camber plates?

I am just trying to figure out how much the suspension is going to have to be upgraded. Whether for the twisty highways, autox or road couse, I would think they must have some ability to add negative camber from the factory?

Need to have Ford engineering forum to help with the real questions. I know for the 2007-08 Shelby GT (non 500 version) there was a Ford Technical Bulletin issued that allowed plates or mods to get 2 deg negative camber adjustment. (legal in F-stock).

The after-market camber plates on my GT500 are set at -2 and I can get -2.5 but since I run it on the street a lot, -2 is a compromise to somewhat preserve front tires on the street. I'm just hoping the Boss has some adjustability from the factory. Not an expensive mod, just wondering?

There has not been anything mentioned in any of the press releases about adjustable camber.

The Ford TSB was about using camber or "crash" bolts in the lower strut mounts to allow for camber adjustment, it wasn't just for the Shelbys, and it didn't mention camber plates.

I'm really surprised the BOSS doesn't come with camber plates from the factory, but if there's any reason they're not included, it's NVH.
