There are several methods at this site in the archives, for freeing a stuck engine. One that is not mentioned is as follows: Place an adapter in the spark plug hole which will allow you to apply air pressure into the cylinder. You can buy both sizes in one package at NAPA for under $10.00 and it is used for keeping the valves in position while changing the valve seals. This saves you from removing the head. Place a generous amount of penetrating oil in the cylinder, and apply air pressure. The air pressure will force the oil where it would not normally go, especially beyond the rings, at an exponential rate. Beware that when you remove the chuck from the adapter, oil is going to come out of that hole and all over everywhere, so stand to one side and cover the area with a rag. It took a long time to set up, it will take a long time to free, but this method will work when others will not. Good luck.
