I may need to buy, borrow, or trade for some ballast for this weekend.
I removed some weight, don't know how much, and will need to meet my minimum weight. I didn't have a chance to dyno to take advantage of the changes so I'll still have to stay at my 3305lb numbers.
what weights do these come in and what are the typical dimensions & mounting configurations?

.... I've even contemplated welding up something using a 25lb barbell weight and 1x1"...
