Just in case you are a fan of the unusual of working on bikes, I thought it was a trip that the parts even existed to do this. I had never seen or heard of the the shim that goes inside the steerer and the the threaded adjustable spacer thing from Problem Solvers. Frankenbike for sure.

It might work...
 
...but even though beauty is in the eye of the beholder, it is kinda ugly IMHO:

Must. Drink. Heavily. To. Forget.

Frankenbike? Looks more like Jeff Goldbloom from the last scenes of "The Fly".

Edit to add: Why, in Dog's name, would anyone even contemplate that? If you like classic stems, buy a vintage frame.
