Cody: You might just try your Deershead and see how it works. I've used old Dura Ace fds with rings as small as 38 and hand no problem shifting to and from rings 14 t smaller (38-24; currently 42-28).
The DA fds do sit just a mm or so above the chainstay when on the inner ring, but they don't touch it. I also shifted a 38X24 just fine with a 10 speed era LX fd: converted from 46/36/24 triple to 38/24 and just left the fd in the same position, adjusting throw screw.
