Ok, so my cover is smaller in the Previewer for Fire than for the regular Kindle (there is space around it). If I use the gen 1 Kindlegen, it is normal size.

So it must be part of Kindle 8, either how it's processed, or how it's packed.

I used the MobiUnpack tool (great to have that available) and I'm not sure if I see anything in the fileset that would make a difference. The image files are the same size, etc.

Here is one entry in the OPF that IS different:
<meta name="K8(129)_Masthead/Cover_Image" content="kindle:embed:0001" />

But maybe it's not the files? Maybe's its how the Kindle software acts after it determines you using 8 files?

Anyone have an idea?
