Timing Belt Slipped
bad time in my life right now.....i was cruising at like 15mph and my car just shut off, i can try to turn it over and it will backfire a little bit but wont ignite., i cant turn the crankshaft with my hands it gets stuck after 1 turn but turning over the motor with the key it'll move. i think i need a full head rebuild hopefully nothing wrong with the block/pistons. does anyone know what it means when your crankshaft gets stuck when trying to turn it? i opened up the timing cover and seen some shreds but do damage to the belt....but my point is, what happens when the crankshaft locks?
-also, what do i need for a full head rebuild?

sorry to say, but ak47 is right.
Your prob gonna need new valves and pistons.
When valves hit pistons they usually do a nasty job. I have seen my friends 2G that he got lucky and just needed a few new valves because they only left tiny tiny tiny nicks in one piston, but chances of that are slim.
youll see when you get the head off

i mean is it pretty much replacing valves and pistons or does it involve more than that?

Sucks about the timing belt snapping, any idea what caused it?
