Default Throttle cable clips?

Recently and finally got me a ls1 car, 2000 z28 NBM. im having an issue with the throttle not opening fully at WOT. A friend showed me the cable coming from the ASR and said my cable is missing some sort of retaining clip you usually adjust to set the cable. Is that missing clip really and issue and where in the world can I get one???
Thanks for the help in advance. Once i iron out some things with the car ill take pics and post up all about it!!

Default

Clips keep the cable jacket at proper length for full
draw / snugness, but this is likely not the whole problem.
Steal some from a junkyard or maybe just use a hose
clamp instead, somehow. But bet on needing to pull and
bend the gas pedal to more of an angle, to get full draw.
I never had a problem with the ASR hanging up the draw
until I went to the larger TB, then I had to bypass the
"gizmo" altogether with non-ASR throttle and cruise
cables.
