Check your clutch adjustment. Not just the cable, but the spring tension on the pressure plate. It sounds like your clutch is slipping

Could be she has low compression pistons and did you do a comp test while cold and then hot and your cam ? one with over lap will be low on comp and the kicker will just push through . My old 88"shovel engine ran 135 a hole and I could push her through by hand so unless shes not running right you may not have a problem .
