A wheel with an 8-spd cassette will be wider than one with a 6-spd. Odds are BTW that the 6-sp is actually a freewheel. There are 8 spd freewheels available, but it's not a good idea if you're having trouble with bending axles already. If it's a steel frame it can usually be spread to accept the wider wheel. For other frames some care is recommended. Another hurdle is shifters. If you're using friction shifters you're OK, otherwise you'll ned another set of shifters/brifters too.

Can a 10 speed front derailleur work with a 9 speed chain?

what? there is no such as a 9 speed chain OK, I don't know what this first "answer" was. To start from the beginning: there definitely IS such a thing as a 9-speed chain, just as there are 6-7 speed chains, 8 speed chains, and 10-speed chains. The difference is in the width of the chain: as the number of gears on the cluster goes up, the chain required gets narrower, as the space between gears gets smaller. Short answer: yes, a 10-speed front (or rear) derailleur will work with a 9 speed chain. The 10-speed front derailleur cage is very slightly narrower, so it may be a bit more fiddly in adjustment with the slightly wider 9-speed chain, but it is 100% interchangeable.

yes the frame is the same only the chassis set up is different.ie, lighter engine lighter spring set up.if you have a v-8 frame your fine to install a v-6.if you have a v-6 frame you will need to change the springs and other suspension items to stabilize the weight displacement.
