Ugh.....Thats a big can of worms.....
Fork: I don't recall one for 27" rims. In order to determine the steer tube length you need to know the stack height of the headset you intend to use. I assume you're going threadless? Then add the length of the bikes headtube to the stack height and you'll have your criteria for a fork. I say get the longest you can find over your 22cm measurement and have a shop cut it to length after the headset is installed. Easy cheesy.
BB: The 70mm is correct. However the length and taper (or proprietary mating surface) of the spindle depends on the crank you intend to run. Know what cranks you're gonna use?
