Don't underestimate wind resistance. As you go faster, the amount of power required to overcome wind resistance increases exponentially. You can't just gear yourself higher and higher to hit 200 MPH unless you increase power.
I think you're overgeared and exceeding the available torque to push the wind at high speed. Try running at 80 in second overdrive and I bet it'll work. I have the same tranny with 4:27 gears and have no trouble doing 80.
