700r4 throttle valve

i installed a holley 600 cfm carb on my 383 and i bought a new bracket to mount the throttle cable and the tv cable to. well i ended up having to bend my gas pedal that way i could open the carb up to full throttle. well when i hooked up my tv cable to adjust it i hooked it up and pushed the throttle wide open to set it. well when i did the little half moon plastic piece with the teeth on it just popped totally out of the housing for the cable. well i put it back in and didn't really think anything about it and ended up putting my old bracket back on so i would pull it out too far again. well when i go to adjust the cable it doesn't change the shift pattern. no matter where i put the adjuster for the tension it still shifts way too early and I'm afraid i might burn up the clutches. i think i pulled it out too far and messed up the throttle valve. has any one had this issue and if so can i get some advise? thanks

i don't think i snapped the cable but i might have broke the function of it. I'm just not sure.
