D16A6 help
Ok, im putting my stock D16A6 back into my 91 Civic. Anyways i get the motor in with out the rocker arm assembly on and the pistons moved freely. I put the rocker arm assembly back together and on. I stopped working on it for about a month and put the car outside in the cold and now i can't rotate the motor or the cam shaft, i disconnected the timing belt and tried to rotate the motor and it feels like it's stuck(like i over tightened the rod bolts, which i didn't because i did that before i put the motor in and fixed it.). I was using a 5 foot breaker bar tighting up the crank shaft bolt so much it felt like if tightened it anymore it would snap. So i go to rotate the motor and it just lossens the bolt. I tried using the starter to rotate the motor and it couldn't do it either(I pulled the plugs out too). Ugh i don't know what to do, any suggestions, should i rip the ------- head back off?

Acouple other things i remembered, i honned out the cyclinder walls and didn't put oil on the walls when i was done and just installed the pistons. Second is there is no oil in the motor at all and the temps have been ranging here from 60 to -25 so i might have got condensation in the cyclinders and they might have rusted, maybe? I guess i rip off the head and oil pan lossen the rob bolts and see whats up. Damnit!
