Hi are the VS holden V6 and V8 subframe the same, also would a 308 bolt up to the 304 engine mounts. Cheers

No, the difference is in the engine mounting area welded to the beam - (the mounting brackets that the rubber mounts bolt to) - V6 & V8 are totally different.
If fitting a V8 to a V6 subframe you need cut & weld the mounts from a V8 onto a V6 - a lot of work. Better off sourcing a V8 subframe - eaiser & tidier for cert purposes.Yes a 308 will bolt to 304 mounts.
