You will barely notice a difference. The 4300 is based around a 3" travel fork, although your 8000 might have had a 2" travel fork. The top tube length is the biggest thing you will notice. Build it up, go for a ride. If it sucks, go find a used 8000 or 8500 frame [or Stumpjumper] and get that xc race feeling going again.
