Rumbling/gear meshing sound from tranny or wheels?....

1988 Turbo convert 5 speed...
Sound occurs when accelerating or maintaining speed above 30 MPH. Sounds like loud tires or rapidly meshing gears. I checked my fluids and found the oil in the tranny was very low, so I added 2 quarts. Now I am a bit high in tranny fluid. The sound is still there.
Is this sinister? Is this a tranny pinion bearing or shifted gears ready to move further apart? Shifting has felt smooth throughout, even with low oil. No problems with syncros either.
Any ideas? TIA
