Are we 100% sure the new pinblock sets at the original height and the top surface is at the original angle?

I am assisting a technician who has replaced the pinblock and board in a Steinway B. The frame has been out of the piano for about 5 months. As we are fitting it back in, it is not at all close to sitting tightly on the front or rear sections of the inner rim. If I clamp the front down tightly, the rear (tail) will raise about three inches (the new pinblock is exactly where the old one was). Is this normal? I was worried that bolting it down that much would stress the plate. Thanks. __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail Plus - Powerful. Affordable.
