Get your V5, change the sections for CC, engine number, and anything else. Send it to the DVLA and they will change it and send it back for you.
Ring your insurance, tell them you've had an engine conversion and give them the new spec. You shouldn't have to tell them who did it etc, best to keep it simple imo
Pay the increase to the insurance, pay your tax next time it runs out I think.

The legal part at the bottom of the tutorial
Might also have to get an engineer to check it as well.
EDIT: I was beaten to it

You will need a engineers report, DVLA started doing it hit and miss, I think its across all now though.
You pay for the increase in tax there and then, Best to go to a DVLA office as I think they are better at sorting it.
