It would sure help me if you reminded us what engine you're working on. Is
this still the 232? I have a hard time keeping straight who's working on
what projects.

I figured it out!! WHEW. The long bolt bottomed out but it kept turning and
it wrecked the threads on the end of the bolt. At this point I KNEW
something locked the engine up. I was dreading the idea of taking it apart
again.
I took off the rocker arm shaft no good. Then I got to looking at the
pulley damper and accessory pulley and I got thinking so I pulled the
accessory pulley off and BINGO, the three bolts holding the accessory
pulley on were too long and digging into the camshaft cover and had it
locked tight!! Some moron used too long a bolts for it. (We will stick
with "some moron" as long as nobody checks old posts or remembers that I
put the pulley on when I added power steering.)
Thanks to all for the help but this was due to a broken nut behind the
wheel problem.
