      Not recommended if it is load bearing, it would not be as strong as the 2 x 8. If it is non load bearing it would work because you are basically just filling the space.

    When calculating the 2 1/2 inches for height of door rough opening am i including the height of the bottom plate that has yet to be cut out in that measurement? Or do i make the cut leave it 2 1/2 and there will be a 1 1/2 gap under door after i cut out the bottom plate? In this scenario there is only a subfloor.

      The height should be the height of the door it self plus 2 1/2 inches.
