Did the engine knock before changing the spark plug? If not you may have installed a plug with a reach that was too long causing the piston to hit the sparkplug. Remove the sparkplug and inspect it. Also compare it's reach (the distance from the seat to the end of the threads) with the plug that you replaced.
