Seized Cams?

[mnetwork]

I went to look at a very very minty 1g today that I thought I was going to get a crazy deal on and flip it. It wasn't getting spark, but then I realized the injectors weren't firing as well. ECU? Then I noticed while cranking that the cams weren't spinning. I guess the CAS not spinning was the cause of the loss of spark and injector pulse. I didn't even think to look at it because the timing belt was pretty new and was tight. I tried turning the motor over at the cams with a socket wrench and I couldn't do it. Then while having my friend crank I put my hand on the cam gears. I felt vibrations as if the crank sprocket was spinning and the teeth were spinning on the belt. Any ideas on this? Just very curious.

Stripped timing belt teeth at the crank sprocket, at least 8 valves bent.

So, do you think the bent valves are causing the cams to not spin manually?

You won't be able to turn the cams if the valves are against a piston. Pull a couple of cam bearing caps and see how they look.
