    Wade,  Since the engine is still in the car here is what you can "try" to 
do. Remove the radiator from the vehicle. Get a 1 1/4" 1/2" drive socket. 
Either remove the crankshaft pulley or use a short IMPACT extension. Put the 
socket on the crankshaft bolt and try with a long breaker bar to turn the engine 
over. If it will not move at all you can use a pipe extension on the breaker 
bar. Moderate to heavy force sometimes is needed. The breaker bar or the socket 
will give way before the crank bolt. If you cannot move the motor using this 
method I would recomend removal of the enogine and probably disgarding the 
engine. The car and the motor are not numbers matching. They could very well be 
the original motor for the car but there is no way to prove that. Chrysler did 
not numbers match until the late 60's. Personally I would upgrade to a 383 or 
larger. It shouldnt hurt the value of the car at all, and the power increase 
will be noticeable.
