...if you have enough travel to be in range with no binding don't worry about it.
I've got to agree with Jetmech. If you can get the recommended throws out of it I wouldn't worry about it too much. Cutting the existing hinges and reslotting is going to be a MAJOR undertaking. I'm not saying it can't be done, but if you can avoid doing it you'll be better off in the long run. Check your throws and see if you're getting what the book recommends
