Ya got too much gear for a mild Combo and flying past your torque curve therefore your not "riding the torque train" as I like to refer it. Think like ya got a diesel and dont over speed the rpm of the engine that can't really breath and let it stay in the torque curve thru the run in the midrange , no reason it cant run a little quicker than the 3.36 did but since its already changed to 3.70 the other way is a tall as tire change from what ya got or stick some big ass KRE heads on it and a bigger cam
