Is the intake tube to the throttle body on tight? Also, I know it's a long shot, but a plugged trans cooler will cause this...

Interesting...the tranny cooler thing is an old ASE question lol, I've never actually seen it happen though. I'd check the intake tube first, it may have gotten cracked or loosened when the engine shifted while dropping the trans. The tube may allow unmetered air in when the engine torques while in reverse.
