Trying to get tanky with a small health pool is extremely inefficient. Tanky Pyke sounds like a gimmick build, at best. Spamming shields on him... sounds gimmicky, again. Especially since there are going to be much better shield targets, like your ADC or mage. Pyke already is going to do less damage than they do, and when building resistances, he's going to be doing even less. If you're looking to assemble a teamcomp around protecting a single champion, you'll be better off revolving it around something like Kog'Maw. Or any other ADC, really.

I'm unfamiliar with the Cho'Gath Gargoyle Stoneplate exploit.

As for gaining AD from HP being problematic... that was problematic because it wasn't a full conversion and rather just an addition. It was problematic because you could build extremely tanky and still do substantial damage, which has very little counterplay. What do you do against a champion who is too damaging too ignore and too tanky to kill? Pyke does not have this issue.
