Looking at GPU-Z my one card has 86.04.17.01.80, and my other card has 86.04.17.00.80 - Is there any actual difference in these?

1 number?

Yes, just one number.

The 00 is the original bios... the 01 in a modified bios.... 
 
What exactly is the question tho? Or is there a problem? I'm confused.

Wondering where to get the 01 bios for my second card?  Should I just dump the bios on the one card, and nvflash it?

Usually there is no way to really know what goes into a new BIOS revision. Sometimes a slight change in manufacturing requires a BIOS change, like if a different type of memory module is used or some other miscellaneous component change.

Is there a problem with your SLI setup? If not, why flash anything?

Who's not into habitually looking to flash the latest and greatest?

Nothing wrong, I am always messing with stuff.

GPU vBIOS is different than say a motherboard Bios update. Manufacturers will make mobo Bios updates available to provide support along with documentation as to what has changed.

No such thing happens with GPUs.

If you are not having a problem, don't worry about the vBIOS.

If you have two 1080 FTW cards, we do not recommend that you do not try to Flash one card to match the other. So long as each card is either running together in SLI, there is no need to worry about the small difference in the BIOS revision.
