Bianchi Europa 1993 Wheelset Upgrade Question

I purchased this bike recently snd made a post a few weeks ago regarding replacement tire size and received some terrific info.

The bike came with 27” wheels when I purchased it but originally had 700C wheels.

So far I really like this bike and am considering upgrading to a new wheelset in the future, and will probably go back to 700C wheels.

Three questions:

First if I upgrade to the 700c what is the widest tires that will fit?

Secondly what brake calipers would you recommend since my current ones will more than likely be too short for the new wheels?

Lastly am I nuts to even consider this and should I simply ride the 27” rims and replace tires as needed?

Thanks
