I'll throw a little controversy in here. The first actual 8 sec. run by a SS/A stick car was by Allyn Lee. He chose not to back it up at the time because he was running fuel that was supposedly not allowed. A week or two later, the first "legitimate" 8's were recorded, using the very fuel that was previously deemed not legal for S/S use. Actually, it was a fuel additive, I don't recall what it is, but Hemi's respond very well to it.
