A) If I use Pounce, does my monster still tap afterwards like a regular fight?
B) If my 8/8 monster with Trample and Lifelink fights a 3/3, how much do I heal?

A) No, Pounce reads "Target creature you control fights target creature you don't control. (Each deals damage equal to its power to the other.)" If the text of the card (including reminder text) doesn't tell you to tap creatures, don't tap creatures. All you do is exactly what it says on the card (both creatures damage each other).

B) You heal the amount of damage you deal. (You can deal overkill damage). So...probably 8 buuuut teeeeeeechnically there are some spells and abilities that prevent damage. There's also some enchantments that double damage (which would cause you to heal 16).
