[pianotech] Oversized Tuning Pins vs. New Block

I'm looking for some reference/article/quote that I can use (besides my own opinion) to reason/argue on why a Baldwin D should get a new pinblock w/ #2 tuning pins instead of an oversized pin job.  This is for a school district bid that specifies that the piano shall be in 'like-new' condition after work is completed.  
It also requires refinishing of the case.  How can one ship a piano to a refinisher's shop for roughly a month having no control of humidity w/ an open-drilled block?  It's absurd!  I'm having a hard time finding something in print that can help me AND the piano.
