Default RE: adding weight to firewall

Bolt or clamp the weight in place as well as epoxy. If the weight comes loose in flight then the centre of gravity will change, probably rearwards, and you will have difficulty regaining control. A crash is almost certain if the weight vibrates loose!
You can drill or pierce a hole in the lead weight or use a steel or brass weight.
