I need schooled on a converter issue?

I always thought "driving thru the converter" meant RPM`s would climb,but the car did`nt go with it---speed wise............

What happens if a converter sees more torq. than it can control?

I have a small 177 blower on a 440 streetcar. 10.4" stock converter,3.33 gear,4,000lbs.
1.68-60ft/ 12.07 @110mph
Put in more cam ET improved //// LOST 2 MPH!!!
Leaves like a bear,pulls good till you shift into 3rd. Acts like its " laboring"?
Could the converter be laying down?
Been thru ALOT of other cures engine wise,can`t make any progress.
