With the rockers out? With them in, it can turn by hand - but not easily.

If the rockers are out but the cam won't turn, you probably have at least 1 tower in incorrectly. There are guide rings on each cam tower that guides it into where it should go as you tighten the bolt. If the guide did not go in (or went in at an angle) the cam will not turn correctly.
