Thanks to all for the help. I measured everything that you guys said and found that when I put the Push rod on High Cam, I could barely feel it when I put the pump and stand back on. I took it back off and welded a *** on top of the rod and the vacumn jumped up immediately, not as high as I wanted so I welded a tad more. after I put everything back together I turned on the elec pump to prime and the car started almost immediately. I then turned the elec pump off and the car kept running for at lease 15 min until I turned it off. I think WE got it. Thanks fellows, you're the best.
 
Kelly you said the PR moved in the .200 range and if the push rod is the right length you may have gotten it running but didn't find or fix the problem. I still think you have a streatched diaphram or play in the rocker arm. Good luck but don't go to far without tools, a new push rod and a new pump. G.M.
