Default grounding issue

I just recently changed the intake mani gasket and now my car wont fire so i am worried i might have missed a important ground. Can anyone suggest what ground i might have missed.

I checked the ignition coil and it tested out good and within specs according to the haynes manual. Can anyone suggest something else?

Did you remove any of the wiring loom when you changed the gasket??
Something makes me think of the earth wires at the back of the engine around the Distributor area (dont quote me but I think theres 3 earth wires there)
