Depends on what the top weight is.  Make sure that's actually the cg, too.

If the top is only about 2oz, you can do anything you want with it.  You can drill the fingers a little deeper if you put the pin up.  If the top is 3oz or more, you might have to be more careful how high above the fingers it is unless the pin is away from the grip and you can use a weight hole.

I think that if you put the pin above the fingers, you might end up with little to no side weight but too much finger weight.  A weight hole in the finger quadrant will give you negative side weight; I don't know if that's good or bad.  I hear it doesn't matter.  I've never seen weight holes directly above the fingers, but if you don't normally flare there, it might not cause too much trouble.  Shouldn't need a real big one.

If you put the pin out (i.e., short pin buffer) but still 4-5" from PAP, you'll need a weight hole but it's manageable.

With only 2.7oz of top weight, you might just get away with drilling the fingers deeper or the thumb shallower (if you can).

You mean, put the pin under the fingers?  That's the usual thing to do with short pin balls, but with 2.7oz of top weight, you could make higher pin placements work without an excessive amount of trouble.

How about this, what are you trying to achieve? (reaction wise?) Why the worry about pin above?
