Sounds like a function of the timing and secondaries on the carb kicking in... just a few hundred rpm could make that difference, or a little faster slamming the pedal open.

stock torque convertors have a stall seed of about 500 to 700 RPM, I'm pretty sure. I propbably would have gone with a stall convertor more around 1800 to 2000 RPM but like Buck said, it sounds more like a timing and carb issue to me. I would play around with the timing a little bit and go from there. If you can play with the secondaries, do that as well, but only after you are 100% sure the timing is DOBA.

This may be going in the wrong direction but is it possible you have a vacuum leak?
