350 teardown
Hello All.
I finally got the 350 freed up by using some PB Blaster.Now I have noticed
that when I try to turn the crankshaft a full 360 degrees clockwise,the
rotation just stops half way.I havent pulled the oil pan yet,but any ideas
what may be stopping me from rotating it a full 360 degrees?

Re: 350 teardown
If the rotating assembly was seized up, you could also have a valve seized open and interfering with a piston. I'd say its likely just a tight spot due to being locked up though.
