GFisher Hoo Koo E Koo w/27" wheels? (wheel/tire noob)

for kicks (and a hopeful outlook), I just put some 27" wheels (700x38) on my GF HKEK. I'm looking to make this 1993 (or older) frame a little more comfortable for me (and my aging 44 year-old frame).

The fit seems very snug to the rigid fork V, and maybe problematic (I didn't ride it, just tested in while the bike was upside-down).

Anyone know if this is workable? I'd love to get the 27"efficiency out of it, but then again, I've got some Kenda Kross Plus tires on order for the 26" wheels that should be pretty efficient.

This bike is new to me, and It will be my go-to commuter/utility. Gotta love getting to know a new bike.

Thanks
