help asap clutch problems

ok everybody i have a 86 gt and ive had a few small head aches latelly first the clutch cable was gettin melted from the mac longtube headers that are on it then finally i put a little something together to keep it from melting so the first night i got the car back had it out all night drove it next morning i get in an cant press the clutch down an then my brother forced it downand i thought i broke or stretched the cable but the more i looked i seen that the cable came off the qaudrant so i hooked it back up and had some one press the clutch while i watched the clutch fork i noticed that it slides forward when pressed as it should but when released it didnt go back to were it should and the cable came back off the qaudrant just want to get some ideas befor i tear into something more then needed

also my clutch is worn some will eventually need replaced was told by guy who replaced the cable wall adjuster and qaudrant please andy help could save the hassle

no its not to short its long enough just when i press the clutch down the clutch fork slides like its suppsed to but when i let out of it the clutch fork doesnt slide back to its normal position it stays stuck towards the bell houseing ... i thought maybe the TO bearing was bad but i no it usually squeals or makes noise witch mines doesnt then i thought maybe the pivots bad but im not sure

and it dont come off the qaudrent till i let the clutch out when the qaudrent rolls back towards the motor when i press it its fine it pulls the fork to the motor and the cable on the qaudrent to me

no the clutch feels normal pressing it down ... this one isnt melted to my knowledge that was a problem i had before the cable in it now has been wrapped etc to prevent the melting but i did notice the cable doesnt go exactly straigh into the bell housing it is at a slight angle ...just very mind boggled cuz it could be something small that im just looking over lol
