Also, make sure the coil brackets are bolted to the valve covers as I BELIEVE that it how they ground themselves. You could also get one of those lights that you ground and stab a wire with ( Idunno what its called) to check the plug wires to make sure you are getting spark.
The fact that you are not getting any codes makes me think its something simple like fuel, power or spark.

I can't say that I know an incredible deal about anything under the hood. I know my way around, but my buddy is the real expert. He went over everything twice and said it was all hooked up fine, so I don't know what it could be.
I think tonight we're going to borrow a trailer and take it up to his work to run a $5,000 scanner on it and see what's wrong.
Maybe your VATS just took a dump at the same time? That would be my luck. There is a good write up on here about bypassing that. Worth a check if you or your buddy have an OHM meter. Do you hear the fuel pump prime when you turn the key?

I removed the starter, checked the connection on the crank sensor again... and it's fine.

Checked the two in the engine bay and the one on the driver's side. All seem to be fine, except I'm not sure what a blown larger fuse would look like (the gray cubed ones). LS1 Tech Stories

Don't forget to see if you hear the fuel pump prime when you turn the key to "on".
I know there is no reason why it should happen when replacing headers other than Murphy's law but my money is still on the VATS. Your key(s) may be fine but your lock cylinder may be what has gone bad. Happens all the time out of nowhere. Only way to know for sure is with an OHM meter.
Have you ever had an issue with the security light coming on in the recent past while driving?
Keep us posted.
