Do not fall for the 'lowest resistance' caper. Performance wires are spiral wound with a metal core. So now you have not only resistance, but inductance & capacitance in the circuit.
In this test, the lowset res wires did NOT make the most HP.
Disc brakes require about 50% more line pressure than drums. So I would use the smaller diam m/c which will produce more line pressure. You will have to check with the manufacturer if the smaller m/c has enough volume to work with the intended calipers.
The later cranks that work with the 727 have threaded holes in the flange; the earlier ones have plain holes, drilled through.
Lifters. I wouldn't use anything made after 1995. Solids would be real hard to find. I get pre-95 OEM lifters from a junk engine & have them re-faced. I modify the...
Carter & Edel 4bbl carbs will take up to 10 psi of fuel pressure; but you need to re-adjust float level. The Edel/5.5 psi 'thing' is because fuel pressure controls the fuel level in the bowls & the 'datum' jetting [ not rich, not lean ] is set with 5.5 psi & 7/16" float level.
I would NOT use an...
[1] Is fuel dribbling from the primary booster nozzles?
[2] You need to disassemble the carb & check that the o rings are in place. I NEVER use the factory O rings, they are too flimsy. Instead, get fuel resistant standard O rings, 3/8" OD & 1/16" wall thickness. Get those first.

[1] Get a custom ground solid flat tappet from Comp Cams. I am getting one done now, $388. They have dedicated Mopar lobes that have more lift & area under the curve than Chebby & Ferd lobes.
[2] Be aware that the crank flange prior to 1962 will not accept a 727.
It is very easy to determine the BEST idle timing. Adjust idle mixture screws for best idle. Engine idling, SLOWLY rotate dist CW until you get the highest rpm. Toggle dist to make sure highest rpm. Now check the timing. It wouldn't surprise me if it was 30-40*. It may have enough vac for p/brakes.
That is the WORST place to put EDM holes because it is where the max load is. You are taking away surface area where it is most needed. EDM hole should be off centre.
