PinBlock too low

[Allan L. Gilreath]

I think Joe's on the right track here.  There are all sorts of other
issues that could show up here.  If the pinblock was planed the same
thickness as the old one but then the shims not reinstalled, the plate
could be mounted at the entirely wrong height.  If the action geometry
was compensated (and I'm sure you can count of that if the pinblock was
installed this way) then this action might not be regulatable (is that a
word?) with the bore distance and such that it has.

Be really careful before you commit to anything on a job like this and
watch out for legal ramifications...

Let's face it, the "rebuilder", (term used VERY loosely), screwed up. If
I
were the customer, I would damned sure make him do it over right. OR
have
him pay for someone else to do it right.
Just my nickle's worth. (Pennies are on their way out, :-( )
