Yess, very spongy, breaks dont start workin till the last 2" of pedal...possible air bubbles in the line. Or the Master Cylinder is going out!

F.Y.I. its terribly bad to jack a thread!!! I wont hold it agaisnt you like other folks, research and google ur questions, if you still come up with nothing, then you start a new thread. Since you only have 3 post all of which on my thread, PLEASE find a thread that is relative to ur specific motor swap and post ur questions there!
