The 2.0 litres EH engines were only available for the Coupé GT/E
2 (C2 the model of the Opel Kadett C Coupé).
The H in the type name stands for high-power. Originally only1000
GT/E 2's were to be made for type approval in motorsport. The
enormous sale success of the production GT/E meant that production
was continued into a 2nd run and remained on sale.
The difference with respect to 2.0E the engine is the 2.0EH the
engine has equipped with mechanical tappets and the head and
exhaust ports have been optimized. Because of this the engine has a
more power and improvements helped further its usefulness in motor
sport.
