49SA smoker. Had head rebuilt with new valves etc. and I put in new rings. Honed sleeves and they looked good. Did not check crank and put in old bearings torqued to 40lbs. Got everything back together and can barely turn by hand even with plugs out and rocker off and battery (6Volt) definitely won't budge. Have oil in cylinders now but did this when putting pistons back in. Used to turn over just fine. Double checked installation of pistons and bearings to make sure they were in right direction before putting it together. Afraid this could be a slipped bearing when I reinstalled or something. Any recommendations or ideas before I drain oil and pull the pan? Hate to loose the head gasket if I have to pull the pistons. Should have spun over before I put it together this far. Help!
