LX200 GPS Max Piggyback weight

I've currently got a 80mm Stellarvue mounted on an LX90 (properly counterweighted). I'd like to piggyback a larger refractor, but I don't think the LX90 will handle it.

What is the most weight you can piggyback on an LX200GPS (properly counterweighted of course.

Since the mounts seem to be the same for the 8" through 12" are there differences?
