Doesn't sound like belt slip... something to do with the tranny or clutch it sounds like to me...

You are making A LOT more tourque & HP in those gears then 1st...Perhaps the clutch & flywheel have some "Hot" spots...

How many miles on that clutch??

...I should ask how many miles on the Terminator & how long would you expect a stock clutch to hold up to 500 hp?!
