Normally, the rule of thumb is, Length width= total length of snake. That is at the minimum. I would go larger to give it room to grow. Being 8ft now before too long it will be 10-12 so you dont want to have to build a whole new enclosure within the next year. If you really wanted to go all out for her a whole room (modified) would be best. But just as a roomy enclosure, probably a 10*4*2 would be great. That is just my opinion.
