Post Knocking HELP

I purchased a project 96M with an incomplete turbo setup. I finished the plumbing and got it started and its a loud knocking. Hoping it not the rods. 850 Injectors and MegaSquirt3 set correctly.

Not enough details.

Was it knocking before you finished up the turbo plumbing? Did you drive it home? When did it start knocking?

It's hard to tell from a video, but it doesn't sound like it's down low. It's not normal lifters noise, but maybe a completely stuck valve? It's also barely running, so just do a cold compression test.

Maybe a wrist pin? It's definitely not normal lifter noise.
