the engine would turn (by hand) prior to the install. initially it turned fine when trying to start it. never did light off. made a wierd noise or 2, now, it won't turn at all. full charge on bat. starter just clicks. plugs out, in gear, pass side tire chocked, i can not turn the engine with the dr side tire at all. like it's hitting something. i have 0 answers or ideas. just about at the end and ready to take a huge loss on everything. debating whether to pull the engine, and just roll the car out and tarp it. words can not express....

that fw is not the on that came with the engine. i don't think it came with one. this engine deal happened quite sometime ago and i don't have any issue with the sale. i think the starter prob is a blessing at this point. i was crazy sick with the grave's desease (if you're not afflicted, you have NO idea. not an excuse mind you) when i bolted this thing together. there are about 5 months of my life where i have no speciifc memories of certain events. so i'll step back, recheck the end play. i honestly don't know if i even checked the ep prior. all i know is there is no fore aft movement at all when i push/pull on the fw.
