It feels more responsive definitely, and more torque - it can pull from quite low rpm now. I think I am now running the same setup as your car Gez?
I have put a Gunson tester up the exhaust to set the mixture, not as accurate as a proper MOT one but probably good enough. I might see if a friendly local garage will put it on their tester for me at some point.
I carried over all my plugs and leads as they were known good ones.
One slightly annoying gremlin I had with the 2.7 was it would hang onto revs after letting off the throttle, only for a few seconds but annoying when changing gear. This has gone since changing the engine over. The revs instantly drop as soon as I lift off now. No idea why an extra 100cc of engine would affect that at all unless the manifold vacuum is now different? Or it was somehow unhappy with the air/fuel ratio of the 2.8 fuel injection on the smaller engine? I never got round to testing the fueling system that came with the 2.7
