When you torque them down all the way you're gonna have to put alot of ass behind it to turn it. Its a total fresh setup. I had this issue with Joker Instituted's motor when I built it. Cant stress enough to lather the cylinders and everything on the bottom end in assembly lube. Redline works awesome!! The only time you should have to turn it is when you're installing the timing setup and you wanna avoid turning it too much unless you lubricated the fuck outta it.
