It's a Members only link on the Radiomuseum, so here is the list, it's not accurate! Corrections appreciated.
I've maybe added a few new models since doing this in 11th Sep. 2012
Not sure how to post it properly formatted.
I have it on a spreadsheet if anyone wants it.

There may be mistakes!
They tended to have a new Lissen cabinet design and have an AC only, an AC/DC and Battery version chassis for same cabinet. Then a variation of cabinet for Ever Ready. The design of the AC, AC/DC and Battery chassis (TRF, normal superhet, short superhet etc) would be similar but differing mainly in valve type, heater wiring and PSU. Radiograms always used an AC only Radio chassis sold separately and could come in different styles of Manual. Auto changers might take mixed sizes or one size only. The battery chassis might be reused as a portable as well as alternate to AC or AC/DC chassis in same table cabinet. There are a few "real" attempts at portables before the "All Dry" that use gel type accumulators and specially designed chassis.
The lists above are not ALL Lissen and Ever Ready, but the 1935 to 1940 models excluding variations for Forces Entertainment as they are just a variation of Lissen 8514 / Ever Ready 5214.
So make comments and we can then produce final equivalent tables for public consumption!
Paul King (guest from UK) has sent me an extract of Oct 1989 Radiophile by the late "Dictron". He is concerned with identifying Pye Chassis (the basic chassis 1935 to 1938 of many is by Pye) so "lumps" more together, while I am trying for more exact matches. He had a couple I missed and I have a few he missed! The above is updated somewhat.
Variations against Dictron's Oct/Nov 1989 Pye story.
He is approaching it from the actual "metalwork" aspect of the chassis, so both his E-R1 and E-R2 groups are mix of AC, AC/DC and Battery sets. I had in fact realised already that not only is same case in a particular year offered with all three options but that chassis layout can be the same. However, for my purposes they are different sets!
Similarly he "lumps" grams and table models and even versions with different valve line up a year later etc!
I'm not matching "similar" but simply 1:1 rebadging.
So the differences only, not the whole list!
Dictron in italics, mine in bold based on year, same case style and same schematic!
5006: 8111 8116 8117 8121 8125 8128 8129 8116 only
5007: 8108 8109 (Radiogram & Battery set!) NO MATCH
5020: 8118 8164 8118 (5035 is 8164)
5028: 8301 8311 8122 (listed models are mains, this is battery, transcription error of 5038?)
5029: 8302 8322 8324 8302 (second pair are grams using same radio)
5035: as 5020 8164 (5035 and 8164 are revised later versions of 5020 and 8118)
5039: 8306 8406 8306 only (8406 is a later model)
5040: as 5029 8322 only (Matching kind of gram)
5041: 8409 8329 Sunshine 8409, (The Marquis 8329 is mains, not battery portable!)
5101: 8418 8468 8468 (the 8418 no buttons, wrong box)
5103: 8417 8422 8453 8453 (only one same style)
5104: (blank) 8410
5118: as 5101 8418 is correct cabinet
5122: (blank) 8422
5132: (blank) 8433
I'm NOT matching models that are simply same chassis, but that are same shape /style of cabinet, radio, radio with presets, year, manual gram and auto-gram.
There are MANY lissen / Ever Ready that are same chassis with tiny variation a year later, or in three cabinet styles and both kinds of gram in the same year.
I've maybe added a few new models since doing this in 11th Sep. 2012
Not sure how to post it properly formatted.
I have it on a spreadsheet if anyone wants it.

There may be mistakes!
They tended to have a new Lissen cabinet design and have an AC only, an AC/DC and Battery version chassis for same cabinet. Then a variation of cabinet for Ever Ready. The design of the AC, AC/DC and Battery chassis (TRF, normal superhet, short superhet etc) would be similar but differing mainly in valve type, heater wiring and PSU. Radiograms always used an AC only Radio chassis sold separately and could come in different styles of Manual. Auto changers might take mixed sizes or one size only. The battery chassis might be reused as a portable as well as alternate to AC or AC/DC chassis in same table cabinet. There are a few "real" attempts at portables before the "All Dry" that use gel type accumulators and specially designed chassis.
The lists above are not ALL Lissen and Ever Ready, but the 1935 to 1940 models excluding variations for Forces Entertainment as they are just a variation of Lissen 8514 / Ever Ready 5214.
So make comments and we can then produce final equivalent tables for public consumption!
Paul King (guest from UK) has sent me an extract of Oct 1989 Radiophile by the late "Dictron". He is concerned with identifying Pye Chassis (the basic chassis 1935 to 1938 of many is by Pye) so "lumps" more together, while I am trying for more exact matches. He had a couple I missed and I have a few he missed! The above is updated somewhat.
Variations against Dictron's Oct/Nov 1989 Pye story.
He is approaching it from the actual "metalwork" aspect of the chassis, so both his E-R1 and E-R2 groups are mix of AC, AC/DC and Battery sets. I had in fact realised already that not only is same case in a particular year offered with all three options but that chassis layout can be the same. However, for my purposes they are different sets!
Similarly he "lumps" grams and table models and even versions with different valve line up a year later etc!
I'm not matching "similar" but simply 1:1 rebadging.
So the differences only, not the whole list!
Dictron in italics, mine in bold based on year, same case style and same schematic!
5006: 8111 8116 8117 8121 8125 8128 8129 8116 only
5007: 8108 8109 (Radiogram & Battery set!) NO MATCH
5020: 8118 8164 8118 (5035 is 8164)
5028: 8301 8311 8122 (listed models are mains, this is battery, transcription error of 5038?)
5029: 8302 8322 8324 8302 (second pair are grams using same radio)
5035: as 5020 8164 (5035 and 8164 are revised later versions of 5020 and 8118)
5039: 8306 8406 8306 only (8406 is a later model)
5040: as 5029 8322 only (Matching kind of gram)
5041: 8409 8329 Sunshine 8409, (The Marquis 8329 is mains, not battery portable!)
5101: 8418 8468 8468 (the 8418 no buttons, wrong box)
5103: 8417 8422 8453 8453 (only one same style)
5104: (blank) 8410
5118: as 5101 8418 is correct cabinet
5122: (blank) 8422
5132: (blank) 8433
I'm NOT matching models that are simply same chassis, but that are same shape /style of cabinet, radio, radio with presets, year, manual gram and auto-gram.
There are MANY lissen / Ever Ready that are same chassis with tiny variation a year later, or in three cabinet styles and both kinds of gram in the same year.
