I swapped my 72 dart drum brakes to a 73 BBP duster disc brake setup. I currently have the calipers in the back which is the way it was setup on the 73 duster I salvaged it from. I have read that some people have stated that they should be in the front. What issues are there with them being in the back?

I believe if you put them on the front, they will interfere with the strut rods.

In reading the threads on the subject I recall they hit the sway bar when they are mounted on the front.
Is that what they hit? I knew they hit sumffin.

I can neither confirm nor deny that is accurate but that is what I recall reading in the threads.
I think you're right cause I went back and looked at the disc brake 101 thread and the sway bar is outboard the strut rod, so it would be first to make contact.
