We can give this to you piecemeal or you can get it from an authoritative source.

This recommendation is often missed: "Generally, manufacturers recommend no more than 20mm additional stack height between stem and upper race." Two cm from the top bearing sounds over-restrictive. Two cm from the top of the compression cone would be more like it. But confirm with the manufacturer of your fork.
