With an 8 card suit 4S is the best opening bid. With any more HCP North would be correct to open 1S.
TIP:
Agree with your favourite partner how you like to open preemptive deals. This will give you a better club about what to do with the south hand over a three or four level opening. In general, devalue a balanced hand with defensive cards.
