Better cylinder location FAQ?

Amigo-2k, if you are doing a FAQ for the 3.5 Trooper cylinder locations do you want to add the Oxygen sensors into the mix? If so maybe verbage only rather than my crude diagram attempts might be better. Something like -
Standing at the front of the vehicle and staring at the engine. The closest cylinder on the passenger side is #1. Still on the passenger side the middle one is #3 and the back one is #5. On the driver's side the front to back numbering is 2,4 and 6.
For the oxygen sensors on an AT vehicle (i.e. two cats) the one before the cat on the passenger side is Bank1/Sensor1. The one after the cat on the passenger side is Bank1/Sensor2. On the drivers side, the one before the cat is Bank2/Sensor1 and the one after is Bank2/Sensor2.
For the oxygen sensors on a manual transmission (i.e. one cat), the first one on the exhaust of the passenger side is Bank1/Sensor1. The first one on the drivers side exhaust is Bank2/Sensor1. After the two pipes join and before the cat is Bank1/Sensor2. The one after the cat is Bank1/Sensor3.
Again, not saying I have such a great FAQ worthy post only that it may be clearer and more useful than my earlier cylinder location diagram.
