ignition problems

i have a 460 swapped into a 79 bronco the problem is when it is cranking it has power to the ignition and runs but when in the run position it dies out like someone pulled the wires off the coil i have switched starter relays ignition switches and duraspark modules and nothing has helped if any one has any suggestions they would be greately appreciated
