I'm pretty sure you should keep the smallest part of the V5 as if you'd just bought the car.
It'll enable you to partly prove ownership for road tax purposes. I could be wrong so don't quote me.
EDIT: To get tax you need to prove insurance so sort that first. Then get it MOT'd, then taxed.
You could always sell the car to yourself on Ebay, just do a BIN (get a mate to do it for you), then buy straight away and get a free 7 day cover note from Norwich Union  Play stupid about the engine conversion essentially!

Play daft as I said
Just get your insurance sorted and the MOT.
Then, if you wanna be honest, declare that you're in the higher tax band when you go to the PO.

If you use a V10 form for the tax, you have to put the engine size down yourself, so you'll pay the relevant tax band.
