I replied to your other thread with a solution to an issue similar that happened to me.

Lost a bearing testing a nitrous hit on e85 gas. Mine had hundreds of pass and nearly 100k miles on it at the time.

There are metal shavings in the filter. I added new oil, removed the plugs, and attempted to turn it by hand. It took a 2.5' breaker bar to get it to spin and it has a lot of resistance. With the plugs removed the key was able to get the engine to crank over but seemed a off.

I'd pull off the intake manifold (easy) and check all the valves for straightness/damage. Might help determine if if chain or other issue caused valves and pistons to collide.
Can you get it to turn over enough for compression test? |

Yes -that's a good suggestion. Thanks! - my next move is compression testing and then continuing the tear down from there.
