WD,
On the 'Files' section of the group page there is a file called information.htm which has a lot of dimensional info on the T27.? With some basic trigonometry you can figure out the lengths for all shrouds and stays.? I think that the relevant numbers you need are these:
All wire is 7 x 19 stainless
------------------------------------------------------------------
?Standing Rigging
?
Lower Shrouds-------- 7/32"
Upper Shrouds-------- 3/16"
Forestay?------------? ?3/16"
Backstay??------------ 3/16"
Lifelines???-------------??9/32"
including vinyl 3/16" wire
Genoa Tracks?--------- 1"
Mainsheet traveler??----?7/8???
many have up graded to 1"
Spreaders?-------------?7? degrees
above Horizontal

I want to replace the standing rigging on "Gusto", a 1967 T- 27, hull # 284. She is a fine sailing vessel (I have owned her twice) but find I am not sailing her as she deserves due to concerns about the rigging being older. Yahoo!
