RE: hydro handbreak problem
It sounds like there may still be air in the system, did you use a vacuum bleeder?

No the old fashioned way done 100s of cars and never a problem and foot break is not spongy
RE: hydro handbreak problem
What size is the cylinder?
If its .625 itll be useless. You need at least a .7 or .75
Cant remember which one I have in mine, Ill check in the morning for you.

it should be stamped into the side of the cylinder. From what Ive seen, a lot of the cheap hydro 'kits' (cylinder,brackets and handle) have a .7 cylinder.
To be honest I reckon the cheap cylinders are just dirt, a proper cylinder (willwood, girling, obp) aren't that dear, around 50 quid or thereabouts I think.
A .625 has a smaller bore size………the smaller the bore the more pressure exerted in the lines.
A .7 has a bigger bore………. it'll move a bit more fluid but it won't exert the same pressure because its a bigger bore.
Make sense?
