Terry,
Since the head is off can you tell if any of the cylinders were sleeved? A friend had an engine with very few miles after a rebuild and one of the sleeves was pulled down enough to cause the engine not to turn. The engine shop had not pinned the sleeve but I believe he does so now. Just another thing to check.
