WTF car won't crank after header install?!?

ok I finally got the headers in but now the car wont crank...i checked the obvious things first...battery and starter since the starter was out i thought that could be it but it didnt help when i replaced it so...the lights radio and everything will come on but she wont crank...what the hell is wrong with it? i did accidently ground the starter before i replaced it but it didnt work before that either and all the fuses look good in the box...engine block ground was off to but i made sure i put it back on good and everything...what could be wrong? why would it happen all the sudden?

Check your positive cable. It runs right up next to the passenger side header.

Like nobody else has ever done that.

Are you saying you never have, Chronos?

Oh, that's right, you pay to have you oil changed...

Lighten up.
