Both terms are commonly misused here on CEG. Many people say E1 when referring to a 99 or 00, which is entirely wrong.

SVTC term, relevant to the CEG community only.
E0 would be a 1998 SVTC.
Softer, rounded off rims.
Dash clock is still on the dash
etc
E1 would be a 1998.5 SVTC
Edgier rims (COBRA-style)
Clock removed.
etc
Not to be confused with the 98 or lower, and 99+ change in horsepower (upped by 5).

The 5 hp increase in 99 was due to more agressive extrude honing.
For 2000, the engine bore was decreased slightly bringing the engine displacement down slightly (from about 2.54L to just barly under the european standard of 2.5L for tax purposes). With the decrease in displacement, the compression was bumped from 10.00:1 to 10.25:1 to compensate. Even though this is considered a 2000 event, some late 99 engines were already configured this way.

there has been alot of arguments on what was actually ex honed,i.e the uim...svtprodigy says that some guy at eh told him they never did a second run on the uim's...who knows...i thought that the lim was slightly larger...
