Similar boat here with an 8" RC - I have belt modded it but I can defs gets sub arsecond using OAG at native FL (so I know its not a guidescope lying to me!). The moment of inertia is what really matters not weight for mounts, and whilst I have belt modded mine, just getting stuff properly balanced and PA'd is the go.
You hear a lot people saying "anything 8" is too much for an HEQ5" or "you can only use 50% payload on an HEQ5 for AP". But, the proof is in the pudding of images - I couldn't give a rats ass about my error rate as long as the guiding and mount can complete the corrections its told to do.
