Well, if you didnt mess with anything besides wiring up the knock sensor, I would retrace my steps, and look over all the wiring that you worked close to and make sure everything looks good.
From there, Id maybe look into testing the coil or ICM.
I know it sounds strange, but about a month ago, I was finishing up a swap for a guy. The car wouldnt start. I checked for spark and fuel. Had spark, but no fuel. After about 15 minutes, I traced it to a couple stuck injectors. I switched them out and tried to start it again. Still wouldnt start. After about 30min of racking my brain and going over everything again, I checked spark again, this time no spark. WTF! I swapped out the coil and the car fired right up. So somewhere in that 15min the coil decided to take a ****.
Its weird, but it happens.
