Car wont stay tunning after start

I just finished my 350 tbi swap and now I'm having some problems with it starting and staying running.
I got the ebl and loaded a tune from a l05 just to get a bases on it running. Well with that tune it misses a **** load and back fires a few times when I left off the gas, it doesn't idle at all it just does if I key go off the gas. I got everything hooked up and have tdc set up. What would cause ot to not idle? Maybe I messed up tdc and/or the wires are wrong

Check firing order, timing, look for a major vacuum leak.
