Truck won't start after cam and lifter swap

Last year my BBC 402 got a worn lifter on the intake of the #5 cylinder. I replaced cam and lifters with an Edelbrock 2162. I replaced timing chain, and oil pump in the process. I got everything back togeather and set valve lash and set timing to 5 degrees BTDC and I am having trouble starting. After a few tries while pumping the gas it will start and rev up to 3.5K RPM then die. I verified throttle is not stuck.I have loosened up valves to recheck valve lash and will probaly pull dizzy to verify before i try staring again. I won't probably get back to it until early next week. Any ideas on what I'm missing? Or Faulty parts i should check out?

Thanks in advance-Lee

Stock BB 402, Edelbrock 2161 Intake, 2162 Cam/Lifters, 1411 Carb.
