[QUOTE="airtube, post: 731341, member: 11123"] Honestly it is a very long story. So I suggest start from beginning and see how far we can go. Firstly is reasoning. Why 6 inline and why V6 orientation. Answer: Packaging of combustion engine in engine bay. Basic factors to consider: 1. Engine positioning - front, mid, rear 2. Drive Wheels - FWD, RWD 3. Other factors - rare cases of unique chassis designs For the basics: read and understand the following Automotive Layout explanation before we move to next step of understanding the best practices.
