Hi :)

Well that depends. You wrote "2,0S OHC". So the question is is it a OHC engine, or is it a CIH engine ? If it is a CIH the part will fit, no prop.

Does your engine look like this: (this is a CIH engine)

Or this: (This is a OHC engine)

If it is a CIH type engine, i can reccoment locating a alloy rocker cover for the engine. Theese are found on all 2,2 and 2,4 CIH engines, and older versions also exist from Opel GT and Kadett B 1,9 Coupé (oil cap is located on center of the cover on theese). Theese alloy rocker covers use a rubber gasket that is very durable, and almost never break or begin to leak so this is a nice little upgrade to keep your engine oil-free :) They are also good looking :)

Check it out :)

2,2 and 2,4 rocker cover (only difference is the 2,2 is 2,4 on that engine)

This is the one from the GT

As they are both alloy they can be polished :)

You are welcome thumbsup.gif

Yup if your engine is a CIH you can use the item you have linked for. Those polished ones are available on German Ebay.de. Most of the time they are overprized, so getting hold of an original item, getting it blasted with nutshells or other soft material, and polishing it yourself can save you quite alot of dough ! ..

Here´s one ready for polishing http://cgi.ebay.de/OPEL-KADETT-C-GTE-MANTA-ASCONA-GT-CIH-ALU-VENTILDECKEL-/370535596499?pt=DE_Autoteile&hash=item5645a481d3#ht_500wt_949

and here´s an original item http://cgi.ebay.de/Aluventildeckel-2-2er-Rekord-Top-Manta-Ascona-Kadett-/280725163890?pt=DE_Autoteile&hash=item415c860f72#ht_500wt_949

and here´s the opel gt one

http://cgi.ebay.de/Opel-GT-Ventildeckel-Alu-/110732014054?pt=DE_Autoteile&hash=item19c82471e6#ht_500wt_949

When you search german ebay search: "opel aluventildeckel" or "manta aluventildeckel" or "opel gt ventildeckel" thumbsup.gif
