Villain is a semi-passive fish. I except not to see any 8x, 2 pair, straight, Qx...maybe the only one he's got is Qx with the FD, but he might re-raise that on the flop.

Do you still push and hope calls w whatever?

My first idea would be, is there an option where we check and he blufs?
Since he is a passive fish the answer is prob no , but still , it's worth considering.
For the rest there isn't any other option then shoving , since you have the best hand 90% of the time , and you only have 1/2 pot effective stack left.

Only thing i wonder is at what point i start ch-calling my 8x because of the kicker. Id say T8 is prob the lowest i want to shove , and go for ch with 89 or less

It seems to me that his range is super weak. In game i would probably jam river, but more i think about it, more i like underbetting. As you said there is very few hands which can call shove and most of his range is 4x, followed with 2x and 7x. These hands usually don`t call shoves, but might call 95 otr.
