273 dartcharger engine torque ??

I have a 1965 273 dartcharger , engine All bone stock and a 4 speed , question is >>> engine runs real strong in first gear with a 2.93 gear , frys the tires thru first gear at a roll , but as soon as I grab second gear , it just seems to peter out ... could this be the issure with the 273 having to torque or is it air fuel issues .. better intake and carb?
273 is all bone stock ! and it does not miss a beat.
what are your opinions ?
Thanks !

13" tires? I have 3:23's and a 4 speed in my 66 Dart with a fresh HP engine and can't "fry the tires" in first gear. You've got more under the hood than you think or I built a total pooch. tmm
