Check to see if you left any vacuum lines off or if they are broken.

That problem is usually a sign of a very large vacuum leak at the intake manifold. While reassembling things , you may have left off a vacuum hose or have a loose bolt on intake manifold. Check gaskets too but don't over torque that aluminum manifold.
