HI Paul,
Interesting reading,
To my way of thinking the best thing was taking the drums and shoes to a brake specialist and having them matched ie skim drums and match thickness of linings to the correct Dia of drums giving maximum contact.
the other item I would fit is 10lb Residual valves one to each brake cyl
two things they do they retain 10lb pressure in the wheel cyl which holds pressure on the seals
which is also handy if the car is not used all the time
less chance of air entering the system
mount them directly after the master cyls
and (No ) they will not hold the lining against the drum it takes about 70psi to over come the return springs
