Not sure if your "engine won't turn" comment means, you put a battery in it and it won't turn over or it won't turn over 'cause it is seized. If it is the former, might try cleaning both the body grounds (assuming there are two like in a SWB). Just had a similar thing happen on a 912 I found that had been parked with the engine out for 20 years. Put in a new battery and nothing. Cleaned off both body grounds (by battery and by trans) and that seemed to do the trick. Marvel Mystery oil is commonly recommended to help lube the cylinders minimizing potential damage.
