I see lots of differences in engine accessories, like spark timing curves & fuel pressures. Varies from country-to-country & year-to-year.
Pistons are different from B201i vs B201T, also different for non-APC('81,'82) vs APC ('83-on). Camshafts are different, but it looks like the APC turbo cam might(?) be the same as the non-turbo cam (lift & duration are same). That stuff doesn't seem to change year-to-year.
Big engine stuff like the actual block & head, I don't see anything, but I'm still not sure. If the combustion chamber shape was different, I don't know if my book would even say that. I don't see any differences in crank & mainbearings. Piston fit class is a whole story, depends on who mfg pistons. They have to match (Mahle vs. Schmidt vs. Hepolite), also match fit class of each bore. Mahle & Schmidt used in '84, Hepolite from '85 on?
