By aheadset do you mean threadless?

Tioga Master, Campag Record, Ritchey Logic, Tange, Shimano XT

Don't Forget Chris King (Grip nut) or Mavic 315

315's look fab on RC100's - also amazing quality. Have a collection of StrongLight's in 1".

Not many/none then, the aheadset system didn't come along to the market till 1992 at which it pretty much just the DiaCompe Aheadset that year model. So not when the RC100 was out.

There where custom made jobs PACE used for their own setup and other may have used. But not specifically for the threadless steerer as we have today.

But 1993 quite a few models where around, RaceFace, Tioga, ...

Re:

I've got a Dia Comp Aheadset, also had a Campag Record (very nice).

Nothing wrong with putting a later Aheadset onto an RC100, unless you're going for the straight out of the shop period correct build.

Re:

I use a Mavic 305 in mine which has had the threads removed.
I also use a Shimano 600 cartridge headset on my road bike which I have removed the threads from and it's been faultless for the last 3 years.

Re:

IIRC, The original headset as used by Adrian Carter on the RC100 was a bored out (threads removed) Shimano 105, I'd say that would be the most period correct and not too difficult to obtain & fab
