I can't think of a way to move the chain line on an Ultra Torque set up, it's just two outboard cups and a BB spindle half on each arm. If you have horizontal dropouts you may be able to reposition the rear axle to improve cross chain interference. Barring that, you could change the 34 for a 36 and wind up a cog or two lower (up toward the spokes) for your sweet spot. The other option is to change the rear cassette for a wide range model that would allow you to stay in the 50 and work the 9 thru 5 cogs (1 is the smallest) to approximate the 34x whatever cog you were using before.
I use a 34/50 crank and have a chain catcher like this:

I can drop from the 50 to the 34 ring and shift 3-4 cogs up (higher gear) in the blink of an eye without losing the chain or momentum. In the old days when you had to sit down to shift down tube shifters we just learned to gut out a big gear for a short distance or spin up a small one in lieu of shifting all the time.
