IIRC One significant change from the 700 to 800 srs was the position of the two hydraulic pumps.
On the 700 they were on the outboard engines and on the 800 they were on the inboards.
This caused a few incidents when taxiing on two engines after landing if the wrong ones were shut down and there was no power to the steering.
