The Opel Cam-In-Head engine ("CIH" for short) is a series of inline engines which was built from 1965 until 1995 and was available in four- or six-cylinder configurations. Its name derives from the location of the camshaft, which was a compromise between an overhead valve and an overhead cam layout. The camshaft was mounted above the cylinder but aside the valves and actuated them through a very short tappet and a rocker arm, because it was not near enough to act directly upon the valves. The layout was an evolutionary dead-end and was not adapted for other engines. The 4-cylinder CIH was largely supplanted by the Family II unit as Opel/Vauxhall's core mid-size engine in the 1980s, with a large capacity 2.4L version of the CIH remaining in limited production until 1998 in the Omega A and latterly, the Frontera A models. The 6-cylinder versions of the CIH remained in volume production until 1995.

There was also a diesel engine using this layout, first seen in the Opel Rekord D in 1972.

Design

The CIH is not a true overhead camshaft design, although the camshaft is mounted in the cylinder head, driven by a roller chain - rather it can be thought of as a "hybrid" between an overhead valve (OHV) and an OHC configuration. Later versions used hydraulic tappets, a design which was pioneered by Opel for mass market production. The valves were in a reverse flow layout, both mounted on the right side of the engine (when longitudinally mounted). This led to lowered fuel economy but was considerably cheaper to manufacture. The head and block are both made from cast iron. The CIH engine was oversquare, with the original three versions having a very short stroke of only {{convert|69.8|mm|in|2|abbr=on}}. Later engines of over 2000 cc received longer strokes, up to {{convert|77.5|mm|in|2|abbr=on}} for the 2.2 and {{convert|85|mm|in|2|abbr=on}} for the 2.4 (also used for the 3.6-litre inline-six version).

While an improvement over an OHV engine, the advantages over an OHC design were limited. The biggest one may have been cosmetic, with the lower head allowing for a correspondingly lower bonnet line. The CIH engine was also lighter (although this was negated by the use of a cast iron head) and it should require less maintenance than the more common OHC design.[1]

Four-cylinder versions

1.5 liter model

This is the first iteration seen, introduced simultaneously as the 1700 and 1900 variations. A {{convert|82.5x69.8|mm|in|2|abbr=on}} bore and stroke means a {{convert|1492|cc|L|1|order=flip|abbr=on}} displacement. 15N and 15S (low and high octane versions, for Normal and Super) were on offer, as with most of Opel's engines of the 1960s and 1970s. Power ranged from {{convert|58|to|60|PS|kW|0|abbr=on}} for the 15N while the rare 15S (only installed in the export only Kadett B 1.5) has {{convert|65|PS|kW|0|abbr=on}}.

This engine went on to be built by Daewoo (it had been imported by Daewoo's predecessor companies GM Korea and Saehan Motors) in South Korea beginning in around 1983. The automobile taxation system of South Korea greatly favours engines of less than 1.5 litres displacement. It was installed in the Saehan Camina, the Saehan Gemini/Daewoo Maepsy series, and in the Saehan/Daewoo Royale (until 1987). 1.9 and 2.0 liter versions were also built in Korea.

Applications
  • August 1965 - July 1966 Opel Rekord B
  • August 1966 - January 1970 Opel Rekord C
  • September 1967 - 1970 Opel Kadett B 1.5 S (export only, Austria/Sweden/USA)
  • March 1976 - 1978 Saehan Camina
  • December 1977 - 1982 Saehan Gemini
  • 1979 - 1988 Saehan/Daewoo Max (pickup version of Gemini/Kadett C)
  • 1982 - 1984 Saehan/Daewoo Maepsy
  • 1984 - 1989 Daewoo Maepsy-Na (engines built in South Korea)
  • 1972 - 1982 Saehan Rekord
  • 1982 - 1987 Daewoo Royale XQ

{{anchor|16N|16S}} 1.6 liter model

The {{convert|1584|cc|L|1|order=flip|abbr=on}} version has a larger {{convert|85|mm|in|2|abbr=on}} bore and the same {{convert|69.8|mm|in|2|abbr=on}} stroke as most CIH fours. It was introduced in September 1970 with the all new Opel Manta A and then, seven weeks later, in the Opel Ascona A. The 16N uses lower octane fuel and has a lower compression ratio, while the more powerful 16S uses higher octane petrol. Power outputs were {{convert|68|and|80|PS|kW|0|abbr=on}} at the time of introduction; the outputs were lowered after the beginning of 1975 when desmogged engines were introduced. Output was now {{convert|60|and|75|PS|kW|0|abbr=on}} respectively. From 1975 there was also a cleaner yet A16S version with 69 PS for some markets.

Applications
  • September 1970 - August 1975 Opel Manta A
  • October 1970 - September 1975 Opel Ascona A
  • August 1975 - May 1981 Opel Manta B
  • September 1975 - August 1981 Opel Ascona B
  • May 1977 - August 1979 Opel Kadett C 1.6 S
  • November 1975 - July 1981 Vauxhall Cavalier Mark I

{{anchor|1698|1.7}} 1.7 liter model

As explained before, the {{convert|1698|cc|L|1|abbr=on|disp=flip}} version was one of the three to be introduced originally. Bore is {{convert|88|mm|in|2|abbr=on}} bore while the stroke remains {{convert|69.8|mm|in|2|abbr=on}}. The 1700 was only ever available in carburetted form, for either normal or super petrol with corresponding power outputs. Power outputs are {{convert|60|and|75|PS|kW|0|abbr=on}} for the original 17N and 17S versions. The output of the 17N increased to {{convert|66|PS|kW|0|abbr=on}} in 1969, and then back down to the original 60 after the compression was lowered in 1975. The 17S received a new carburettor setup in 1972 (when the Rekord D was introduced) and power climbed to {{convert|83|PS|kW|0|abbr=on}}. The 17S was more popular in export markets where engine displacement was directly linked to owners' costs, countries like Italy and Greece.

Applications
  • August 1965 - July 1966 Opel Rekord B
  • August 1966 - December 1971 Opel Rekord C
  • September 1967 – 1970 Opel Kadett B 1.7 S
  • August 1967 - July 1970 Opel Olympia A
  • January 1972 - August 1977 Opel Rekord D
  • August 1977 - 1980 (1982?) Opel Rekord E
  • February 1970 - December 1971 Ranger A
  • January 1972 - August 1977 Ranger B
  • August 1972 - 1976 Chevrolet 1700 (South Korea)

1.9 liter model

The {{convert|1897|cc|L|1|abbr=on|disp=flip}} version was the third version originally introduced. Bore is {{convert|93|mm|in|2|abbr=on}} bore while the stroke remains {{convert|69.8|mm|in|2|abbr=on}}. The 1900 was available in carburetted or fuel injected forms, for either normal or super petrol with a variety of power outputs (the N version was a later addition). Output is {{convert|90|PS|kW|0|abbr=on}} for the original 19S. There was also the 19HL (Hochleistung, or "high power"), introduced in 1967 for the sporty Opel Rekord Sprint and Kadett Rallye Sprint models. This version has {{convert|106|PS|kW|0|abbr=on}}, compared to {{convert|97|PS|kW|0|abbr=on}} for the slightly more powerful 19SH (only fitted to the Rekord). The 19SH lost some power in 1975, down to {{convert|90|PS|kW|0|abbr=on}} and the new 19N was introduced to replace the discontinued 17S; like the 17S it offered {{convert|75|PS|kW|0|abbr=on}} but used cheaper gasoline and more relaxed driving characteristics. The 1900 is the most common version in the CIH family, available in the most versions and with the longest production time.

The 19E was the first of the CIH four-cylinders to receive fuel injection; with {{convert|105|PS|kW|0|abbr=on}} it first appeared in the Manta GT/E in March 1974. There is also a low-powered version of the 19N (the A19N) with {{convert|69|PS|kW|0|abbr=on}} which was mostly fitted to the Opel Rekord E, and a special low emission version for the Swedish and Swiss markets, called the S19S, which develops {{convert|88|PS|kW|0|abbr=on}}.

Applications
  • August 1965 - July 1966 Opel Rekord B
  • August 1966 - December 1971 Opel Rekord C
  • September 1967 - July 1973 Opel Kadett B Rallye (19 S/HL)
  • August 1967 - July 1970 Opel Olympia A coupé (19S)

  • November 1975 - July 1981 Vauxhall Cavalier Mark I

{{anchor|20S|20E}}2.0 liter model

The {{convert|1979|cc|L|1|abbr=on|disp=flip}} version was based on the 1.9-litre version, with the bore expanded to {{convert|95|mm|in|2|abbr=on}} bore while the stroke stubbornly remained {{convert|69.8|mm|in|2|abbr=on}}. Unlike the earlier 1.9, the 2.0 also received hydraulic tappets. Developed to counteract the diminishing outputs which resulted from stricter emissions rules, the 2.0 was available in carburetted or fuel injected forms, for either normal or super petrol with a variety of power outputs. Output of the original 20S, presented in September 1975, is {{convert|100|PS|kW|0|abbr=on}} at 5200 - 5400 rpm. Soon there was also the fuel injected 20E version, with {{convert|110|PS|kW|0|abbr=on}}, and the slightly more powerful {{convert|115|PS|kW|0|abbr=on}} 20EH fitted to the Kadett 2.0 GT/E. This received the Bosch L-Jetronic system, until it was replaced by the updated LE-Jetronic towards the end of 1981. A {{convert|90|PS|kW|0|abbr=on}} 20N version appeared in August 1977. There are also two special low emission versions for the Swedish and Swiss markets, called the S20S and S20E, with slightly less power than their dirtier counterparts.

Applications
  • September 1975 - August 1977 Opel Rekord D
  • September 1977 - August 1988 Opel Manta B
  • September 1977 - August 1981 Opel Ascona B

  • 1978 - 1985 Saehan/Daewoo (Rekord) Royale
  • November 1975 - July 1981 Vauxhall Cavalier Mark I
  • late 1978 - June 1986 Vauxhall Carlton

2.2 liter model

The 2.2 CIH engine was fuel injected or carbureted and was produced in 1984 through 1987. It was used in Opel Rekord E, Opel Monza A2 and Opel Senator A2.

2.4 liter model

The 2.4L capacity version was the final 4-cylinder CIH engine, first used on the Omega A in the German market (the 2.0L Family II unit was the top spec 4-cylinder engine option for the Omega in most markets outside of Germany), the final application was in the Frontera SUV vehicle.

Applications:
  • 1992-1998 Opel Frontera A
  • 1988-1993 Opel Omega A

Six-cylinder versions

The modern (1968–1993) straight-6 was used in the largest Opel and Vauxhall cars. It was displaced by the Opel-designed 54° V6 in the mid 1990s.

These engines were cam in head cam chain driven, units with carburetors in the 1960s and 1970s,

but was later fitted with Bosch fuel injection in the early 1980s.

A special 24v head design appeared on the Carlton-Omega and Senator in the beginning of the 1990s,

this was later turbocharged by Lotus for the 1990s Lotus Carlton-Omega.

2.2

This is the rarest model of the inline-sixes, with only {{convert|2239|cc|L|1|abbr=on|disp=flip}}. It shares its dimensions with the smallest, 1.5-liter "four", meaning a {{convert|82.5|mm|in|2|abbr=on}} bore and the regular {{convert|69.8|mm|in|2|abbr=on}} stroke. It was first seen in December 1966. With {{convert|95|PS|kW|0|abbr=on}} it had only marginally more power than the 1900S, at a substantial weight and cost penalty. It was removed from the Rekord C subsequent to the introduction of the six-cylinder Commodore line in February 1967, and was discontinued entirely towards the end of 1968, when the 1969 models were introduced.

Applications
  • December 1966 - 1967 Opel Rekord C
  • February 1967 - August 1968 Opel Commodore A

2.5

The modern Opel straight-six line began in 1968 with the {{convert|2490|cc|L|1|abbr=on|disp=flip}} 25S unit used in the Opel Commodore. Still a 12-valve engine, it had a very oversquare {{convert|87x69.8|mm|in|2|abbr=on}} bore and stroke. 9.5:1 compression and a single carburettor produced {{convert|117|PS|kW|0|abbr=on}} and {{convert|174|Nm|lbft|0|abbr=on}}, while 9.0:1 compression and dual carbs produced {{convert|132|PS|kW|0|abbr=on}} and {{convert|186|Nm|lbft|0|abbr=on}}.

Applications
  • August 1968 - January 1972 Opel Commodore A
  • January 1972 - July 1977 Opel Commodore B
  • August 1977 - August 1982 Opel Commodore C / Vauxhall Viceroy
  • January 1978 - August 1987 Opel Senator A / Vauxhall Royale/Senator
  • February 1970 - December 1971 Ranger A
  • January 1972 - August 1977 Ranger B

2.6

At the introduction of the 24v DOHC engine in Senator/Carlton/Omega, the 2.5 increased volume to 2.6-litres and with a reworked cylinder head (still with twelve valves) and RAM Induction it now produced {{convert|150|PS|kW hp|0|abbr=on}}. This engine was also fitted to southeast Asian export market versions of the Holden VP, VR, and VS Commodores between circa 1992 and 1997. These cars were usually labelled "Opel Calais".

2.8

The 2.8 was introduced in the first Commodore model. The carburated version can also be found in the Monza and Senator, while the second Commodore was also available with a fuel-injected version producing {{convert|150|PS|kW hp|0|abbr=on}}.

3.0

The {{convert|2969|cc|L|1|abbr=on|disp=flip}} version was introduced in 1977 alongside the fuel-injected 2.5.

The carburated version had {{convert|150|PS|kW hp|0|abbr=on}}, while in the more popular fuel injected version, the 3.0 produced {{convert|180|PS|kW hp|0|abbr=on}} and {{convert|248|Nm|lbft|0|abbr=on}} in the Opel Monza GSE and Opel Senator 3.0E, as well as their Vauxhall badged equivalents (the Royale and later the Senator) Bore was increased to {{convert|95|mm|in|2|abbr=on}}, but the stroke remained at a very short {{convert|69.8|mm|in|2|abbr=on}}.

The 1986 Opel Omega 3000 / Vauxhall Carlton GSi introduced the latest version of the 3.0. The injected engine produced {{convert|180|PS|kW hp|0|abbr=on}} and {{convert|240|Nm|lbft|0|abbr=on}}. Amongst the changes were larger valves and a switch in engine management to Bosch Motronic. This engine later found its way into the Senator and Omega 3.0i.

In 1989, a DOHC 24-valve version with a variable length intake manifold was introduced, with power increasing to {{convert|204|PS|kW hp|0|abbr=on}} and {{convert|270|Nm|lbft|0|abbr=on}}.

The Omega Evo had a special Irmscher version of the 24-valve engine with an uprated head and forged internals producing {{convert|230|PS|kW hp|0|abbr=on}}.

3.6i

Irmscher made a 3.6i 12v engine and fitted this 36E coded engine into the Monza E and Monza GSE models. In the UK some of these engines that were originally designated for an Opel Monza found their way into Vauxhall Senator B's instead.

Later on in 1987, they put newer, more environmentally friendly versions of this engine in special Irmscher versions of the Omega A/Mk3 Carlton and Senator B models. These later units ({{convert|200|PS|kW hp|0|abbr=on}}) output engines had 36NE/C36NE/C36NEI engine codes and were less powerful than the first {{convert|207|bhp|0|abbr=on}} engines that were used to power the earlier Opel Monzas. There were also 24-valve versions of the 3.6 developed.

4.0i

4.0i 24v DOHC versions were made both by Irmscher and Mantzel who are well known tuning companies in Germany. The {{convert|3983|cc|L|1|order=flip|abbr=on}} Irmscher engine had a C40SE code and was the only one out of these two engines that used a specially cast engine block as part of this increased capacity engine conversion. Mantzel's {{convert|4032|cc|L|1|order=flip|abbr=on}} engine used an M4024V code number and a modified standard 30NE/C30NE/C30LE/C30SE coded Opel engine blocks for its four-litre conversions.

The Irmscher version was an option in the Opel Omega Evolution 500 models, producing {{convert|272|PS|kW hp|0|abbr=on}}

Lotus 3.6 twin turbo

The Lotus Carlton-Omega introduced a stroked to {{convert|85|mm|in|2|abbr=on}} version of the engine with same bore of {{cvt|95|mm|in|2|abbr=on}}, now displacing {{convert|3615|cc|L CID|1|order=flip|abbr=on}}. Lotus used Garrett AiResearch T25 twin-turbochargers and an air-to-water intercooler along with a compression ratio of 8.2:1 and custom fuel injection. The turbos were arranged in parallel, each fed by and feeding three cylinders. The company reportedly experimented with a variety of forced induction schemes, including paired supercharging and turbocharging and sequential turbos, before settling on two small turbos for quick spool-up. The Lotus engine produced {{convert|382|PS|bhp kW|0|abbr=on}} @ 5200 rpm and {{convert|568|Nm|lbft|0|abbr=on}} @ 4200 rpm.

Competition

The CIH engine had a long competition career, in both four- and six-cylinder forms. It won the 1966 European Rally Championship, with Swedish driver Lillebror Nasenius at the wheel of an Opel Rekord B. Competitions departments quickly changed the less than competitive layout of the head, with crossflow versions developed by a number of tuners such as Steinmetz, Mantzel, and Irmscher.[2] Later models received four-valve heads, a layout also used by Opel themselves for the Manta 400 and the later 24-valve sixes in the Omega A and Senator B. The most powerful iteration was the {{convert|380|PS|kW hp|0|abbr=on}} twin-turbo 3.6-litre C36GET as used in the Opel Lotus Omega/Lotus Carlton.

A four-litre version (C40SE) was also developed by Irmscher, and installed in the Opel Omega A and Senator B. These engines have a bore and stroke of {{convert|98|mm|in|2|abbr=on}} and {{convert|88|mm|in|2|abbr=on}} respectively, for an overall displacement of {{convert|3983|cc|L cuin|1|order=flip|abbr=on}}. Power is {{convert|272|PS|kW hp|0|abbr=on}}.
