I have a 1993 Silverago with a 5.0 TBI. It was idling rough so I replaced
the plug wires, distributor cap and rotor botton (which was badly worn).
After replacing now the engine will not start. I checked a wiring diagram
and have followed replacing the wires to the correct point on the
distributor cap but still no start. It wants to start but dies out. Any
help is appreciated!!

Since you have eliminated mis-routed wires as a cause, you might want
to pull the cap and verify that the button is installed correctly.
