Default First cam swap. Hear Knocking??

I just did a cam and springs swap and now i hear a knocking on the drivers side of the engine. Any suggestions on what this could be. Driving doesnt seem to be affected.

aftermarket springs are sometimes a lot louder.. but go back and check all ur plugs/wires twice each would be the first thing id do.. followed by making sure ur coil packs are all plugged up, if this fails take it somewhere, or start swapping coil packs around to see if it moves ect..
