Should drop straight in. I believe the block/engine mounts are identical.
 

What's the difference between understeer and oversteer?
Understeer is when the driver is scared.
Oversteer is when the passenger is scared.

why a 308 mate if you don't mind me asking ,the 308's are a good motor but the 304 with a high rise manifold with the right injectors, exhaust and tune will make heaps more torque then the 308

I am assuming 308 to reduce electronics and maybe a cheaper option considering it is a purpose built burnout car.

Would be the simplest way of doing it. Of course it would be a completely stripped down harness, doing away with the ECM, most of the instruments as per stock and possibly even the interior controls. Although in stripping it out, it becomes lighter and more able to smoke tyres.

Ignore the injection, the headers and the heads, and the 304 in a VN is very similar to the VL. A stock VL 304 had a Carter 4 barrel carburettor, and was the last of its kind. Look around the engine, and things like alternators, oil filters, ignition,engine mounts and timing covers are a straight swap
