Default Clutch Quadrant?

Im going to get a new cable and quadrant for my car and Im looking for some suggestions.. Any brands to stay away from? Should I go with the firewall adjuster? Ive read that the firewall adjuster can cause the clutch cable to snap? Any truth to that? All input is greatly appreciated

Steeda was a good setup for me. I used the firewall adjuster and no probs.

#1 mistake to make is let the cable touch the headers=goodbye.
