  1. Hard to say with what little info you have given


  2. if it won't even turn the pistons over you have probably seized it or done the bottom end... either way it is going to be expensive. On the bright side when you do the rebuild you can put some more performance parts in it and make it a real weapon.

  3. you will need to give some more info on this. Will it turn over? is it getting spark? is it getting fuel into the carb?

  4. well this sucks that that happens but. it can be that your engine is siezed. or it could be electrical.... if it wont trurn over at all i would check your fuse box

  5. It sounds like you lost your power { meaning electrical }

    if it won't turn over now. You didn't give any other things that could be indicators of other things.
