Custom game between stockfish

Is there a way to setup a board and then watch the game unfold between say stockfish 8 and 3?

I set up two games with what you asked using play with the computer. I was using another browser that was not logged in when I did that. It gave me a game and picked a level and color. Did it a second time to get another level and color. Then I played the moves the engine played. The end result was obvious, the higher level won.
Here are the game links. @ivoliveira

I don't see the point of playing the same engine at different levels against each other. The outcome will be obvious and it will have blunders and errors. If you want to see two engines playing against each other then look at this link.

Thanks @Toscani for your reply.
The reason for this was to see how a world class player would play in my place.
I am a fairly weak player, was playing 960 against Stockfish 3 which for me is already a huge challenge.
I was at the end in a more advantageous position (I think) but couldn't materialize as time ran out.
I wanted to see how a great player would do in my place, from that position.
I know that after game ended I can go in analysis, "continue from here", switch sides, set up the opponent to stockfish 8, which I did but it is not the same thing.
