You may have done this in other threads, if so, please direct me to them, but curious why this combination is "better" than - say - just an SC case with short stroke crankshaft etc etc....

I have never built this engine before. "Better" is all about what floats your boat.
This is just what might have been built in 1967 if someone was so inclined.
The SC build would actually be better in many aspects if cosmetics don't matter.
The SC with a 66mm crank require less innovation. You don't even need to design a custom piston and the SC heads are far superior to the 2.7 liter heads even with a bunch of work. Valve size, stud spacing and valve angle are all better.
