Your brakes are fine. They stop as well as the drum brakes on a Series II
Landie, with about the same pedal feel.

If that isn't acceptable to you, then run, do not walk, to your backyard or
other large expanse of land, and bury your wallet. If you don't you'll
regret it :)

I didn't and I regret it! But my car has been upgraded nicely. <grin>

 (Just to calibrate your expectations, I'm about 25% of the way down the
slippery slope, at a cost of about $4K. The expenses mount up more quickly
the further you slip down the slope.)
