If you want more reach, you could get a Technomic, which would be the same length out of the steerer tube but greater reach to move your bars farther forward. One thing you could try is a quill to threadless adapter which will allow you to stick any number of 1 1/8" threadless stems on your quill adapter. I ride this way on my 1983 Univega, as the quill diameter is 21.1mm, the old BMX size. I have an adapter in there and atop it sits a Redshift ShockStop stem. It's really ugly but it works great.
Thought of the quill to threadless but I need that 25-30 degree bend to open up the cockpit.
