Is that doable keeping the same fork and frame?
Will a shorter eye to eye shock work? Cheaper option would be to put some BETD bushing to reduce shock travel and hence the eye to eye, but in real life does it really work?
Get a head angle reducer headset, such as the Cane Creek Angleset, or the ones from K9 and Works components.
there are several options have been in the bike press of late
dirt petitioned cane creak to make an anglset for 1 1/8th forks
and some guy was already knocking them out already

or custom shock bushings

Ahhh yes, I forgot to ask whether your frame had a 1.5" headtube. Those options I mentioned aren't made for 1 1/8 headtubes.
i put a 190mm shock on a frame that came with a 200 and that worked nicely. Just check the rear wheel won't hit the frame on full travel. Cheapest option though is the offset shock tophats from the Irish fella in the Dirt link above.
Put a taller/bigger tyre in the front. Height difference between a High Roller and a Crossmark is crazy... Crossmark is a much taller tyre...
why would you have a crossmark on the front tho?
Because they're a front or rear tyre? I happen to run one on the rear but if I was blatting around trail centres all the time then I'd be tempted to wang one up front too.
that would negate the comment about it being a high front tyre to lift the front end tho as both tyres would be the same

Oh FFS. You got that Friday feeling? I'm not suggesting put a Crossmark on both ends and I'm not bothered about slackening my bike off. I was suggesting to the OP that he could fit a taller front tyre. Simple.
Jesus.......
Thanks to everyone that replied.
Can creek headset won't work (1 1/8 headset). I won't put a cross mark on the front either ;-). But the bushing option looks interesting. Anyone tried them?
