GM didn't want to use the I6 because it would hurt the approach angles as the vehicle would be too long. I wonder if V8 is shorter in length than the I6 and why didn't they off a V8 to begin with?

Hmmm, 6 cylinders in a line vs 4 cylinders in a line. I wonder...hmmm... it might be longer...use the search feature from a couple years ago, there were lots of discussions about why the V8 wasn't selected to start (a lot of time-to market, need for changes to the motor to get it to fit in the space, etc).
