Default Engine stops when clutch is released in gear

Hi there. I have a 455 engine that I just replaced the rear main seal. I put the engine back in the car with a new Centerforce clutch and a T-10 manual transmission. Before I lowered the car from the jack stands I started it with no problem and let it idle in neutral. When I put the trans in gear and released the clutch the engine stops. I restarted and gave it more RPM but it still stopped. The car is still in the air and there's no load on the wheels so I'm not sure what's going on. Suggestions?
