Default 95 Crank but no start

I have a 95 LT1 and was replacing the water pump seals, a pretty simple job, and after unplugging only the MAF, coolant temp sensor, and the intake air temp sensor to get the intake snorkle out of the way, I moved that part of the wire harness out of the way without placing any strain on the wires. After putting on the new seals and plugging everything back in the check engine light is on and it cranks and right as it starts to turn itself over it quits and wont completely start.

Some things to try.

Read the codes. The CEL should indicate that there will be some stored.

Disconnect the ECT, IAT, and MAF (same wires you removed to change seals) The 95 should start and run without any of them connected.

Check for spark.

Oh BTW did you pull the coil wire off of the Opti to get the WP off? I think it is in the way for some reason.
