Yep, sprints / tubs were essentially 700c so the old 27 X 1/14 " will not be a "match" for sprints.

These are nice rims and has a cassette (yes, its an early casette) that will fit your rear end..........which you need to measure but should be 126mm. You can also use a freewheel type of hub as well for that era.
Just an example really as we need to know the OLD / OLN of the wheels that you have. That is the distance apart the dropouts are, makes it a lot easier if you buy the right sized wheels
Hope that makes sense.
Actually I'll put those wheels on my watch list

I have some 5spd quick release wheels available but if were mine, I'd fit tubs.
