As has been said filing a CHG for the different aircraft type will enable ATC to allow for your different cruise speed & climb performance. But you must also include in the CHG message the new cruise speed & requested flight level.

The computer isn't clever enough to work that out for itself as obviously even with the different aircraft type there are many other factors affecting your requested level.
