Default after 4k rpms into 4th gear

i was riding tonight i threw 2 quarts of motor oil in after the fact that i had found out i was low on motor oil...

now i drive the 7 down the road and i think either between 4k rpms to 6k roms later into 4th gear car acts like it wants to shut down but if i let go of the gas it runs perfect now i dont mean litterally like it wants to shut down it feels like a down shift almost close it like as if you downshifted from 4th to 3rd really fast like that slowing down to quickly but still in 4th though i decided theres a problem and im not risking any chances of blowing what i just bought idont know whats going on but im gonna have to make a quick call you rotary 7 tommorow and get an answer out of him i guess unless anyone can identify this problem right on the spot from the forums maybe i can deal with it my self

has anyone ever encountered this problem before?

if the oil is high enough to were it just barely touches the dipstick, you only need one quart to fill it up all the way.
