Start the helix below the face of a conical?

I am making a bottle cap thread, therefore the Thread Creator will not work. The space between the top of the thread and the top of the bottleneck needs to be 0.94mm I have sketched the profile of the thread at that location, but I cannot get the helix to start at that location, it only starts at the top face of the conical. And when I try to do a sweep, the starts the sweep at the bottom of the profile (because the bottom of the profile is closer to the helix line), therefore creating the sweep in the wrong direction/location. I am very frustrated, any advise is greatly appreciated.
