Sounds like you may have sucked some crap up into your system from the bottom of the tank and blocked the fuel lines or pump. Use a compesser and blow the lines out up to the filter and check the pump.
I may be wrong but thats what it sounds like from the information given. Also i wouldnt advise you to keep turning the engine as that could make things a whole lot worse.

I would check for crap first BUT………….
Small block engines have a mechanical fuel pump on the head, and they can take a while to suck enough fuel from the tank if you have run it completly dry. Try sucking on the fuel inlet and see if you can get some fuel up.
Tastes great :mrgreen:
