5 cores can be run behind most inline boards, although they'll lag a bit. I can run 4 or 5 7 cores behind each of my big boards without any problems, but my big boards pull hard. One hint that might help you is instead of having a couple of rods rigged with 5 color, and a couple with 7 colors and a couple with full cores...spool up several rods with 5 colors and add snap weights if you want to get deeper...figure 1 oz of lead equals 1 color of LC.
As far as backing is concerned, a couple hundred feet of mono is fine, and so is braid...braid will get you more line on your spool, which is necessary if you fish Lake Ontario, mono is cheaper if not. So, 200' minimum of backing, then leadcore then 50-100' of fluoro leader.
