i think he's taken the radiator out. since it's stripped he might should do it now that he has more room.
i also assumed the head was still on but if not, you're probably spot on

If you have the head off, the timing chain is probably wrapped around / jammed on the crank sprocket causing a bind.

still head is on and trying to turn the motor at TDC (I'm not doing anything to the strippted bolt yet) before I remove the chain tensioner and the head. I'm manually turning the motor with 20-inch 1/2" ratchet and 27mm socket but for some reason i can't turn more... it got stuck at 0200 mark.

correct, i removed the radiator for additional clearance as I was going to work on removing the stripped bolt but i'm gonna have to remove the head first so i can send it to machine shop and will work on the stripped bolt.
