7-speed Freewheel with 10-speed Spacing?

A number of years ago, I finally upgraded my wheels from Suntour Superbe Pro 7-speed freewheels to Shimano 10-speed cassette (RS80 wheels, Dura-Ace 7900 rear mech). I still have some of my old wheels with nice tubular rims (and the gorgeous Superbe Pro hubs) that I'd like to put to use. Would it be possible to use the old wheels with a 7-speed freewheel with the Shimano drivetrain? Obviously, I'd have to change to thinner spacers between the cogs, but would this work? If so, what spacers would I need, and where could I get some?

Thanks in advance.
