Changed Valve Cover Gaskets, Now Wont Start

Just as the title says. I just got done changing the valve cover gaskets, and I cant seem to get her started.
She is cranking, but im just not getting anything...

Everything is hooked up, plugged in, and ready to go...ive went over everything twrice...

I did however in my search DISCOVER A GROUND WIRE LOOSE...
The ground wire goes to the firewall closest to the head...Im not sure where it goes??

IIRC there is a ground wire that goes to the fuel injectors around there.

Ok...i took back off the upper intake...And checked everything...All my injectors were wired...There is a bolt at the end of the head that a ground wire goes to...Could you confirm that there is another wire that "jumps" off of it to the firewall? Or should there just be one wire? What happened is that if 2 grounds are supposed to be there, when I orignally took that bolt out, the ground going to the firewall "slipped" out on me, without knowing...I know one wire goes directly to the injectors, but where does this ground from the firewall go? I reconnected it to the same bolt/Ground that the injector ground was to, and reconnected everything...Still nothing. I actually drained the battery, and had to charge it...
All CONSPICIOUS lines, and connections are fine it appears. Maybe there is something I am missing :/

Sorry for double posting. I checked all fuses...nothing blown...It was running fine i just wanted to fix the oil leak. Whats the odds of it jumping time? Were going to pull the distributor cap this evening and plug #1 at TDC.
Thanks...Anything else I should look for? Someone mentioned to me about a knock sensor wire? Would it still start if it was damaged? Ive litterally looked at every connector and everything appears fine..
