Does the starter turn over?  If it doesn't you might have disconnected
some wire by accident, try running a test jumper wire directly to your starter
solenoid from the + on the battery as a test.   If it turns over, but
doesn't kick in, you may have got something jammed in your fuel line
or injectors, like dirt.

Did you check for spark at the plugs?
