The allowable weight is the weight in the book. Anything else requires a special certificate of airworthiness - generally called a "ferry permit".
As for CofG, you go back to first principles and do the calculations (for takeoff and touchdown) because the graph is only for flights within the MTOW.
Oh, and climb rates for an aircraft in ferry config can be way lower than 500 ft/min.................the difference between climb and descent is sometimes your breath on the yoke!
