Bikes: '96 Litespeed Catalyst, '05 Litespeed Firenze, '06 Litespeed Tuscany, '20 Surly Midnight Special, All are 3x10. It is hilly around here!

Will not fit. A 700c tire has a bead seat diameter of 622 mm and a 27" tire is 630 mm. There is absolutely no interchangability of tires. You can use the same inner tubes but that is all.
