How do you like that IRD freewheel? I've heard so so things about them. Maybe the problem is the freewheel? Shimano makes a pretty decent 7 speed freewheel but I think it's only available in a 14-28.
Hard to say, but it's easier/cheaper to try a different chain. I spin out on the 13-28 with a 46t "big plate", going with a 14t would be going in the wrong direction.
