Default HELP!!!!!! Possilbe engine lock up

Well i just started putting everything together. I started priming the system then pluged in the coils. Right when i got the coils plugged in it started turing over slower and slower, then just stopped. Now the engine is locked up. Took out all the plugs with nothing in the cylinders. Is there anything i need to know or did i just lock up my new engine???????
Its a 347. all the engine work was done by myself and some friends. Machine the block and everything at the machine shop. Where do i go from here. I'm ready to get sick
