I'd like to replace a 120mm gold anodized Mavic quill stem with a shorter one, also gold anodized. From the shape, I think the stem was made for Mavic by 3 TTT.

I am sure the 120mm Mavic stem was installed on this bike by Mel Pinto around 1974-1977. Do I have it wrong, though, about Mavic's manufacturing capabilities back then? (Mavic, by the way, is cast into the stem head, not stamped, printed, or etched.
