I would suggest moving the cartridge forward in the headshell and turning it inward slightly so you can use Baerwald's alignment of 66-mm and 121-mm. The new values would be:Effective Length = 239.3-mm
Mounting Distance = 222-mm
Overhang = 17.3-mm
Offset = 23.0-degreesRMS Distortion = 0.41%
If you can achieve the desired results, you might not need a new armboard.
If it is impossible to slide your cartridge far enough forward in the headshell to achieve this alignment, I would recommend sliding it as far forward as possible and aligning to the inner null-point of 66-mm only. This should provide acceptable results until you get a new armboard.
Good luck,
