It would likely be better to properly put the new block in, Delignit or not. The other block is likely older and probably needed replacing any way. Delignit blocks are good and so are others mentioned previously. The correct installation is very important. If you are unsure or this is your first and you will be going it alone, then I may suggest using the same block. Putting a new block in improperly is obviously not a superior method to using the old block with larger pins. Ed Tomlinson << This is for a Mason and Hamlin. So, would a 41-ply Delignit block have a more reliable tuning hold than the 7 ply that is in there now? >>
