According to Ford Mustang communications representative Brian Cotter, the new muscle car is being aimed at exceeding the lofty benchmarks set by the stripped-out, pared-down Boss 302 LS, a model that doesn't even come with a back seat. Although Cotter wasn't at liberty to give us specific times and figures, he said that the car would sweep the Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca bends at a time that would come under its predecessor's blistering 1:39.5 pace."
Also note, the Boss LS engine was a direct port from the Ford's race car program. The same engine as that powering Conti Challenge Mustangs. So not unlike GM taking the Camaro-specific z06 engine and plunking it down into Z/28, Ford did the same with theirs.

I suspect
Dave Pericak knows the difference.
I'm not sure Cotter does...as further in your quoted article, Cotter shares THIS tidbit: "
Cotter said he couldn't confirm what would come in the Track Pack for the 2015 Ford Mustang as of yet because it hadn't been finalized". Spoken like a true Communications flak.
But it'll outrun the [non-GM-engined] LS...
trust me.
And which one is the
Chief Engineer?
Dave Pericak.
