I have a Gen3 and a Gen2ish. They have the same casting number on the heads, so I assume the heads are the same. Mine is different to most Gen2's though so I can vouch for all yellow plug 1G's.
I have just put the GEN3 manifolds/turbos/ecu etc on the gen 2 engine and it seems to make similar power to the gen3, so I guess the cam specs are similar. Although the GEN 3 did seem to make power earlier, but that could just be because the GEN2 is a tired old motor.
as far as the rest of the internals, I can definitly say that there are a couple of different cranks in them.

I keep digging through the parts catalog to try and work out the differences.
From Feb 86 to July 88, they used two different cranks, but obviously similar enough that the later one is now the replacement part.
From then on, they used another one which carried through until 93.

Keep digging and you will probably find that they used different rods and bearings on them as well. I can say for sure that the bearings are different sizes and they won't fit in the other caps.
