TV cable question...

Ah, the tv cable... How I hate the tv cable. Anyway, on my car when I press the pedal down to the floor the throttle opens up around 60%. If i press it down a touch further, it opens up fully to 100%. This wouldnt be much of a problem but since the tbi has such large bores the engine goes into power enrich mode above 50% WOT and the pressure in the manifold is jsut about atmospheric and it takes off. For all intensive purpouses, its at WOT power output above 50% WOT. The thing that bothers me is will this cause problems with my next trans? It seems like the shifts might be a problem since itll be at full power with only about half of the tv cable travel out and less line pressure then it should have. I already trashed my present trans because of tv cable problems, i dont want to wreck another one.
