Some info based on own experience and the Spare parts catalog where there is some guidance.
The first series: 116 C (80-82)
old style seats 80-82 very similar to AlfettaGTV 2000
long torsion bars 80-mid.85 with removable cross member
The second series 116CA (83-86) (edition 83)
new style seats w. net as headrest. 83-86
new paint scheme w. rubber band along the side 83-86
new short GTV6 2,5 badge 83-86
new short torsion bars attached directly in the body in the rear. mid85-86. This mod came together with the introduction of the 75 in May 85.
New gear shift system Isostatica 84-86. This mod came at same time as the Alfa 90 was introduced in 1984.
Also there was a repositioning of the rear brake relief valve and common reservoir for brake and clutch in 84-86
As far as I can tell. If this does not seem to be correct in some cases one should check the chassis number to determine production year because in many cases cars that had been on stock for many years were sold as new.
