Well, a 12-H designation doesn't make much sense, numbers-wise. Toyota adds the 1- prefix to an engine designation when they fitted a turbo on (along with the changes that come with the addition), so I would be puzzled if they ever designated a '12H' engine. I mean, that would mean, I guess, a 2H with crankcase stiffener plate, piston skirt cooling, direct injection, and reduced-compression pistons. What would be the point of those changes without any increase in horsepower?
