The only one I have personally used is a Devolution headset or similar. That probably gets prohibitively expensive since that is a headset plus a fork to take the stem that you want. I didn't suggest it in your earlier threads since that seems way to much to spend on a frame that's too small. The two products I've used are the Chris King Devolution headset and Problem Solvers had sleeves that pressed in to take a smaller headset. Both mean a new fork. Go to 1-1/8" threadless, though and you could run as long a steertube as you want.
