Have you reconnected all the wires? Was the battery still connected when this happened?

Check one more thing for me. See if there is spark and fuel getting to the engine. Also, I am assuming the starter is turning the engine. Is that correct?

When you turn the key, does the starter engage and the engine turn trying to start? OKAY. You have no spark to the plugs. That is why it won't start. Have you checked to see if there is power to the coils? Checked the crank sensor.
