Hello I just spent this weekend trying to get my engine that has been sitting for 6yrs to run. I kept it dry and oiled during storage but it was outside (condensation?).
I have not been able to figure out what is wrong with it. I have replaced the starter and battery. It didn't change anything.
I can turn the engine by hand with a big wrench and It seems to be just as hard as my brother's 318 to turn.
The engine is a 360 low compression, stock heads, rpm performer intake, 650 rpm carb, and milodon oil pan.
When the starter engages it makes a ratcheting sound. here is the link of the video I took.

Any help is welcomed.
