Hey Rich, Welcome.
If you think it's a vacuum issue, start by looking at all the vacuum lines and fittings. Check all around the base of the carb for ports that may be left opened.
You can also start the engine and carefully spray carb cleaner around the base of the carb, and any vacuum lines. If the RPM increases you have your vac leak.
The brake booster may be leaking as well. crimp the vac line to the booster and see if the problem persists. (remember you will not have any boost to the brakes, so this is just for diagnostic purposes.)
You didn't mention any other systems, like rough idle, / missing, or such, but this is a start.
If no vac leak is found, go back to basics and check the timing, mixture settings, EGR, Etc.
Also you may just need to raise the idle speed
Good Luck
