sounds like it was too much oil to me and locking the engine.
Hopefully wont have done any damage, now its all turning freely bolt it back up and I'm sure it will be good!

Next time its recommended to put oil down the bores perhaps a quantity would help I've only ever put a half a dozen drops down.

Still odd it was hard to crank with the head off though
