I had recently purchased a civic si from a buddy of mine who had built the motor then drove it around for a little while and it seized up. The motor will still crank over but something is not allowing it to start up. It did not over heat before doing. Could it be the oil pump?

Lets try looking for spark and fuel when it refuses to start and comeback with what's missing
