Sounds like you've got a real nice truck there!
I'm no expert on mechanics, but I believe what you're describing points at the rear end - you may want to put a different rear end in or change the gearing ratios, which would have you shifting LATER than you are now and give you less RPMs at higher speeds.
I have a Chevy 12-bolt rear end in my truck with a 350/350TH and at 65 mph I'm only turning 2000 rpm (I don't know what my gear ratio is in the 12-bolt, but I sure am happy with it).
