Default CTS-V accessories same as LS1 camaro?

Does anyone know if the Cadillac CTS-V accessories are in the same locations as the 98-02 LS1 f-body accessories? From the pictures I've seen they look the same but I want to be sure before I spend $850.00 ordering the whole set-up from the dealer. I'm installing a 4.8L truck motor into a 91 Trans Am so I need accessories to clear everything. My only options are finding used LS1 f-body accessories or buy brand new CTS-V stuff which I'd rather do. If anyone could shoot me in the right direction I'd appreciate it. Thanks!

I believe they are different. The CTSV used the Corvette style balancer, so everything is spaced a little closer to the engine.

There are diagrams on page 215 of the GMPP catalog http://viewer.zmags.com/publication/...#/dc19a2b8/216. The CTS-V is similar to the f-body setup but at the Corvette depth.
