1st- get the end play in spec.  3 shims, no less than .004.
2nd- a new engine can take several hundred miles to seat the rings and
settle in.  Both heat and friction wise.  Especially if you are using
performance rings.
3rd-. Is your clutch adjusted correctly this can cause a 'tight' feeling.
4th- pull the plugs when cold and see if it spins more easily.  This isn't
a semi-hemi build.
5th- if you have to pull the engine, loosen the flywheel and see if the
engine spins easier.  If so, see #1.
6th-. If all else fails, crate that puppy up and ship it to me. (Inset
Vader laugh here)
