Aheadset adjustment - HELP!

Hi there,

Hoping for some advice Please. I've been given a 2001 Specialized M4 Stumpjumper that has had most of its components replaced. The problem is, it is currently running a 6 degree rise 1300mm stem that just feels too low when I ride (Original spec is 120mm 10 degree rise.). I feel like I'm craning my neck up all the time and feel that if I were only an inch or so higher this would help enormously. If it is an aheadset setup and the fork steerer has been cut to size, I can't use spacers, can I? So, is the only option buying a new set of forks and leaving more steere length so I can fit some spacers for more height?

Any help appreciated.
