Revit Hatch Patter for 8x24 Block

I am trying to write a hatch pattern code for a 8x24 CMU block. I have written it and everything seems to be right but there's a weird veritcal shift happening. Below is the written code and an image of the hatch in Revit. 

*Split Face Cmu 8x24, 8"x8"x24" Cmu split face
;%TYPE=MODEL
0, 0, 0, 0, 8
90, 0, 0, 12, 12, 8, -12

Get the pyRevit add-in. It allows you to make a pattern based on detail lines. Then you don't have to worry about figuring out how to write out a hatch pattern.
