Top fuel cars are nothing near 8.2, more like 16 litre blown nitrous and supercharged.

Not the ones we saw at the european finals last weekend
8.2 litre V8 Brad Anderson Enterprises forged aluminum block and billet aluminum cylinder heads with MSD Pro Mag 44 (dual) ignition with 45.5psi boost being provided by the supercharger.
Running on 98% nitromethane this produces 8000 horsepower at
8200 rpm
