You shouldn't need to move the clutch fork arm at all the slave cylinder has a bleed nipple on the back - just bleed it like you would the brakes.

I’ve been on it all day doing a gearbox swap .Does everything in the picture look right to you. My clutch fork is from a newage 5 spd on a uk2000 box

Clutch fork is the same for both classic and newage. The spring takes up any slack in the mechanism.
