Headlights
Headlights pop up when I start the car on my 71 Corvette, my question is if i disconnect the vacuum going inside the vehicle are the headlights still supposed to pop up without touching headlight switch. Just trying to isolate the system so make it easier to diagnose.

Vacuum problems are easy to diagnose and fix, but you will need a Mity-Vac so save yourself a lot of headaches and just go buy one right up front. They cost about $35.

If I understand your question correctly, YES, your headlights will rise if you disconnect your command side (smaller hose going into cabin). Headlights are designed to fail in the open position.
