Mike,,,,, am not NIco, but I would think that clearance problems would have
shown when engine was ran on test stand

Nico, One more idea. Is it possible that insufficient clearance
was ground out of the block for the stroker crank? Mike

All, last week posted a pic of my 520 on the stand after
we fired it up, had some minor leaks which were fixed. This past Sunday
my son and I installed the engine in my 63 Dodge 330 2dr sedan. All went
well until we tried to tie the flex plate to the converter (which had 2
bolt patterns). Put one bolt in finger tight and then tried to go to the
next and found out we had put the first one the wrong hole but as we
were turning the engine forward to the next hole every thing locked up.
Took the plugs out no difference. I have to back the engine up 90
degrees but can't using the crank bolt. Any idea what has caused the
lock up? If need be and I don't want to do this unless absolutely
necessary is pull the damper and use the crank turning tool to get back
to the first bolt. My concern is what has locked the engine
up. Thoughts? Nico Over Va. Beach, Va.
