Will the factory deliver C8;s monthly or quarterly? My dealer said they are getting four allocations per quarter. So I wasn't sure if that meant one car delivery per month or four car deliveries at the beginning/end of each quarter.

After the potential initial quality hold of the early production, Cooper Transport has 10 days to get a car loaded onto a transport once it is ready to ship Delivery time is then as little as 1 day to potentially a few weeks for those that go by truck/rail (basically places over 1000 miles from Bowling Green). I had my C6 3 days after it was built.

So it sounds like when the dealer said they get 4 allocations per quarter, that might be the quarterly quota, but as the cars gets completed, they will be delivered shortly thereafter.

Once the order gets picked up by the factory will it be 8-12 weeks from that date until delivery?

Correct. At 4 allocations per quarter, they will get roughly 1 allocation per month. A week or so after your order is assigned to an allocation, you will have a TPW (Target Production Week) that will give you a pretty good idea what week the car will be built.
