Hi, gang. Getting ready to dump a bunch of penetrant
into my seized 3-main engine. Gonna let it sit a few
days then try and hand-turn it. Question is, what's
the best way to do this? Put a big wrench on the nut
holding the crankshaft pulley in place? And which way
do I turn it? I guess it would have to be clockwise
(as I face the engine compartment from the front) or
else the nut would loosen, right? 

Since I am not 100% sure that this car has been
converted to negative ground (but I think it has), if
I hooked a battery up the wrong way, what could that
potentially do to the starting system?

Thanks.......
