I am installing 8' 4x4 post to concrete. Is the height going to be an issue for this anchor?

Should be ok. I've installed 8 ft tall 4x4 fence posts on top of railroad ties (actually bridge timber) using these. But it really depends on what you're building. If this is a fence where you'll have lateral support with 2x4 or other material, then you're ok.

Can I use this at the top of a 4x4 to connect a 4x4 going across (making a letter T)?

Actually Corran I think this would be a little too much overkill, as this bracket is super heavy-duty. Lowe's has a Simpson Strong-Tie item # 51759 that would work better.

I measured the strong tie and from base to top it was 5 1/2 inches.

What is the. Height of the fpbb44 anchor

I use a 1/2 inch by 6 inch hot dipped galvanized anchor bolt
