I spent part of the weekend searching the archives (the search engine worked
and didn't time-out!) and I never found an answer...

The brakes in my '89 Syncro Westy are VERY mushy/spongy.  If I pump once it
seems to help *slightly*. Kicking the e-brake up one notch while braking
also helps *a bit*.  This indicates bleeding and adjustment may help a
little.

What kind of difference do the stainless brake lines make to a properly
adjusted system?  Where is the best place
to get them? Are they a worthwhile upgrade?  (The ~$600 "Bullet Train" kit
from MSDS seems like overkill to me...)

MSDS has SST lines for about $85, and I couldn't find them on the Bus Depot
web site.  Any other good sources out there?
