Thats why I am wondering if it could have something to do with fuel/jetting.
well the 3.08 gears, 700r4, and the big tires (if its the truck on ur avitar) are the oposite of what you need for low end "git up"... and if the cam is that lopey, and matched to the torqer II manifold, maybe the PO didnt put a stahl converter in the tranny? this could be why it died driving during low rpms

id put the torqer back on, and think about going with 3.73s or 4.11s especially with the 700r4 and maybe thing about a little bigger carb but thats just my .02

good luck
