The other thing I am wondering is if the IP could be bound up...the chain also passes by it on the way to the bottom sprocket.

Yes, I got a good look at the sprocket and the chain was on it properly. I loosened the Injection pump, but could not get it to pull free. It was rotating freely however, so I tried turning the engine, but it was still frozen. If it was the IP that was stuck I think it should have twisted when I was trying to turn the engine. How is the IP removed? I can pull it all the way out of the car and try again.
I have found another 240 engine close to here for $100 being sold by a person that I have had good service from in the past. I would still like to put a 617 turbo in it though...
