I remember you mentioning having quite a few that have been unstuck, any diesels in there too ? The thing I am always curious about is, when they free up, have you had any trouble with cylinder or liner damage from abrasion, rust particles and other abrasive contaminants whereas later on you are getting blow by past the rings ? Also wonder about the rings being stuck. Just curious, though you seem to have had good luck with soaking, though you may not have to do an overhaul on some or all, is it better to pop the head and at least soak and clean the bores prior to running for the above reasons, we see a lot of posts on this here.
One of my D7's, our original one here, I retrieved in '03 and it's stuck but good since I first started working on it again, can was over the stack and manifolds on, who knows maybe the can that looked like it was on there the whole time was not or it was condensation, often wonder what does em in, with diesel you have sulpher and carbon, add that water, tight engine = stuck. This one ran great prior. Head has to come off that one, my other one, I hand crank at least 1x per month and move the pistons around, don't need another boat anchor, so far so good.
