Default help car wont start HELP just got engine drop done

i just pulled my d16z6 and put it back in with a new tranny clutch flywheel intake manifold etc, and i accidentally switched the wires in the underdase fuse panel ( hot and ground wires) and the car wont start, i dont know if i blew a fuse because i cant find a blown one and which one it would be. Also i didnt connect the little white plug at the back of the engine but i doubt that would not let the engine start, the check engine light does not stay on either. Im not sure what is wrong. can someone help me

look at the big fuses in the underhood fuse box. i cant remember the fuse size, i think it is an 80 amp, but the main fuse is the one that usually pops when it is jumped backwards.

you can tell if the big ones are blown by looking at it from the top right? and they all look good.
