If you have a vice, lock the block in it,put a chain wrench on the fly wheel and use a 36inch pipe as a lever.It will move .H.D.

Congratulations!!!
I was beginning to wonder how that was going for you. I am glad to hear that you got it free. How does the bore look? Is it saveable without oversizing it?
