Some questions on the 3.6l

Some questions on the 3.6l vvt LY7

Does anyone have the external dimensions of the LY7 in rear drive applications?? Or even better, a CAD representation of the assembly?

Do all 3.6l LY7 use the same Bosch controller, or just the Cadillac?
The reason I'm asking are the many FWD applications that are now appearing that are not Cadillac.

Is there a listing anywhere concerning the differences in the LY7 whether it is RWD and FWD. Not concerned about water pumps or intakes. Specifically, different crankshafts? Are the blocks machined different?

It's my understanding that the RWD 3.6 VVT does not have the regular 60* FWD pattern. Don't know much else about it. There are assembly pictures on the GM powertrain site that show the accessories side of the motor in each application.
