no installig a starter wrong will not cause engine knocking. all that will do is maybe short fuses, heat up wires, ruin your starter, or melt wires. knocking isn't electrical it is mechanical like lifters, pistons, valves, things like that

The higher compression ratio the standard test engine can be operated at without knocking, the higher the octane of the fuel being tested.
