Put everything back on and plubmed all engine back in my scoob turbo wagon, i know its a pain to bleed the coolant, but just a question at the back of the block the water pipes i think for heater...would it make a difference if they wrong way round, as i cant seem to get radiator warm not sure if circulating correct, checked all other pipe work and ok.

many thanks

You cant bleed the coolant system on a scoob, if theres an airlock it needs draining and redoing. best to use the hose that goes to the turbo from the header tank slowly and no gurgles. Heater pipes being backwards may cause air lock problems when refilling. To drain properly remove the thermostat housing and check the thermostat is working. in this cold weather it takes a while to get decent heat coming out the blowers but if the stat is stuck open then it will take a lot longer.

That didn't ought to make a difference.

If you think it's airlocked, drain it and start again. Do a search for how to refill without airlocking, I've posted the method recently
