Subject: [CR]Question about chainrings

I am just finishing up building up a Kessels that I got from Freek. The gear I am using is all first generation Dura Ace. For an inner ring I am using a more modern ring in 38t . Question is it appears the chain is running closer to the 50t large gear than I would like. Can I use a spacer to move it out a bit ? any suggestions as to what I might use?(AN washer or some other precision washer?) Or give up and go back to the 45t that came with the crankset?
