Jim,
I was surfing the conversion links Monday and found the comparisons, two motors sitting side by side, the "boxer" weighing 240 and Subie 2.2 250 (don't "think" the 2.5 is going to weigh more just due to its HP increase mods). I'm almost certain it was on Ben Huot's site, but returning there I can't find it?  So, stumped! ;>) In the end, I was using someone's else's reported numbers, not a techy report as reference.
