that's bad, once i slightly assmembled my d16z6 head a little wrong and it was turning over pretty tough, just take it back apart and reassemble it from the bottom up, slowly and carefully.

disassemble the head... camcaps/cams mainly.

then try to see if the valves are stuck in the valveguides, if so that sucks for you http://images.zeroforum.com/smile/emsmilep.gif

might try tapping the valves loose with a mallet with the cams out, after lubing them all up with liquid wrench then motor oil. http://images.zeroforum.com/smile/emthup.gif
