I reassembled the clutch onto the flywheel. Then fitted engine to car.

Went for a test drive, all good on the clutch front. I have to say the feel with the rollers in the toggles is totally different. Will take some getting used to. Still need to sort where I want the pedal I think (its a clamp type so easily adjusted).
Not so good on the puncture front!. Had to put the spare on whilst on the test run.

Seems a good engine, starts very easily from cold. No smoke whatsoever. Went up the test hill easy as in 3rd (which the old engine also did). One Jub clip seemed to drip a bit.

Oddly, neither horn now works. So will have to investigate that. I guess an afternoons work will sort. List
1 - Adjust pedal on clutch shaft.
2 - Fix honkers (fuse I hope)
3 - Fit cover around handbrake
4 - Fit cover to flywheel and floor cover over that. secure speedo cable (uses one of the flywheel cover bolts)
5 - Clean off gearbox oil off rubber mats (dont ask!)
6 - Mess with bottom hose jub clip to seal - fill with antifreeze (which will probably find more leaks LOL)
7 - Fix Puncture (well 2 actually, I have another 400 needing a puncture repair).
8 - Touch up paint where I've scratched the floor, chassis and fixings.
