a couple of things. 1: does it drive good doesnt stumble when driving if not the carby might be flooding..... 2: if it runs great and only dies when the brakes are applied, does it idle rough then die, it might be the brake booster.
maybe your tcc solenoid, which is in the transmission. my 84 montecarlo did that with a new carb

How often should brakes be changed?
If you're talking front ones, and they were installed properly and the system doesn't develop other problems to cause premature wear, and also depending if you're talking city or highway driving, not to mention what quality of parts were installed, I would expect about 35,000. If you have rear drum brakes and you keep them adjusted every 12,000 miles your fronts may last longer. If we are talking rear shoes I would expect 75,000 miles, rear disc brakes about 50,000 miles

Not to be a smart alec, however you shouldn't have a carburetor on your truck. It would be a throttle body. If it is a throttle body injection, then I would suspect that your fuel filter is plugged. Change that, and you should be fine. There is one other possibility, you may also have a bad pressure regulator.
