So i'm in the middle of reassembling the engine, and i noticed that the water pump pulley really doesn't want to turn. Is this normal? or am i in for some fun?

I honestly don't know (its the one that was in the car when i got it). I know its the new style water pump. I just couldn't turn it by hand and was wondering if that was normal.

I was seriously considering a rebuilt one before this, so i might as well. I'll leave that one in for now so i can get the engine back in, then install that and tension the belts correctly after that.

I actually never took the pump off. I was just putting things back together and noticed it wouldn't turn. I'll leave everything as it is for now so i can get the engine back in the car this weekend and order a new pump. Once i have that I'll put it in, tension the belts correctly, then get everything together to start the car up again for the first time in 8 months.
