Upright Hammer bore

This is probably way elementary for all y'all 
experts out there, but I have an 1870s Steinway 
upright that has been butchered action wise, and 
I need to replace hammers with no original 
samples. Can I go from the c-pin to string 
distance like I would on a grand and then see 
what angle lets the head hit the string at 90º? 
Any suggestions appreciated.
