105-8 speed brifters

So I bought a nice Raleigh R600 with a missing shifter cable for the FD. No problem. I installed a cable and after flushing it with WD-40, it works perfectly. The rd side wouldn't click so more WD and it clicks and shifts well except only on seven gears. It just runs out of clicks. Have I not flushed enough crap out or do I have a seven speed 105? I noticed the rear wheel is an ultegra replacement. I didn't think the 105 ever had a seven speed version and the shifter seems to hit all the cogs dead on on the 8 speed cassette. I'd like to sell the bike but won't till it's working right. Any suggestions? I understand prayer might help.
