Recently changed intake manifold. After installing distributor, e.t.c. I heard “knocking ” sound in my engine. What could happen?

You need to install your distributor correctly!

As Lou is suggesting, your timing is more then likely off. Please provide the steps you took to reinstall the distributor. While I am sure you believe it was done correctly clearly something is off, so your explanation of those steps can help lead to the solution. Thanks.
