Drilling large holes in cast iron weights is not really a cheap action. A drill bit that size will cost the earth, then a drill to hold it another fortune. The drill probably won't get far before it will need sharpening.
It will be much cheaper to get a machine shop to bore it out on a lathe. I could do it but you are too far away. Although I am quite happy to bore out any weights that are brought to me. No charge.
