Default 3.8 top end rebuild

I have rebuilt the cylinder head on my mark 9. Just tried to turn the crank by hand before refitting the head. It won't turn! It moves a little, less than a quarter turn. Then goes tight, there was nothing wrong before I dismantled the head. I do not want to refit the cylinder head without being able to turn the engine by hand. Any ideas?
