Have an old rear wheel with a Suntour Accushift 6 spd freewheel.

1) Will a Shimano 7spd Megarange (13-34) fit?


Yes, and if you use a Shimano rear derailer, it will most likely index
OK with a SunTour _6_-speed shifter! (The Shimano/SunTour mismatch
cancels out the 6-speed/7-speed mismatch.)

2) Any chance a Shimano triple road rear derailer will work (considering the
34 tooth sprocket)?


Nope.

3) If no to 2), I have a Tourney MegaRange, adapter claw version, handy -
will this work on a dropout with a derailer hanger, or will that get in the
way?


Nope.
