Default clutch problems

i have just put a new engine in my 1985 xr2 and seem to have a cluth problem. when the engines not runnin it goes into gear no probs, but when its running it doesnt it just grinds and squeels. its as if the clutch isnt engaging. the gear linkage and clutch its self are fine and fitted properly.

any ideas out there?

thanks
