Default Jeep wont start!!!

ok so I just changed out my exhaust manifold, put in a new manifold and gasket, and put everything back together, but now the jeep wont start! it turns over like its going to start, but I get nothing. checked and there is fuel in the fuel rail, I labled everything so it all went back on in the right spots, but she wont fire. not sure what it could be.... any thoughts?

Engine to chassis ground can cause this.

Ask Google where yours is located. Then see if is missing broke or only attached on one end or wrong spot for a good ground.
