Rick,
If the engine is that tight i would recommend stripping it and find out why,
If you do get the engine to turn you will be tempted to try and fire it up
which will cause a lot of damage to all the crank bearings and cylinder
bores.
At the very least drop the oil pan down and have a look at the mains/big end
bearings, if they look bad you will have to strip the engine down.
