...... instead of the narrower GM Y32SE which is unusually narrow at 57deg IIRC.

54deg for all 2.5/3.0/2.6/3.2 V6's

LOL, it's just one of those bits of useless information I can always remember. They designed it at 54deg to allow a more compact package for installing into FWD platforms more easily I believe.

Good video on the engine design, build and testing here, A very young Geoff on there who used to pop in here occasionally.
