Vacum and brake bleeding problem

Frame off restoration to paint the frame and when i re-start the truck it run good untîl i plug the vacum advance from the distributer to the carb it die instantely.? I advance it then start again with out the timing advance plug and run fine. I plug it again and run 5 second then die. what im doing wrong ? Im a good backyard mechanic but when for fine tuning im lost. I play with the distubuter back and forth but its not working. New distributer cardone with 460 elite weight in it. I only remove the carb to pull the engine trans and case in one shot. I suspect maybe vaccum leak. The drive train was remove for 3 years. Any help wîll be apreciated
