In my experience, the a cause of "spongy" brake feeling is the rear adjusters being out of adjustment. People also cite older rubber brake hoses.

This is the engine compartment of my 67 220


That's an 1800E booster sitting on a modified 140-series booster stand.

This is what I did for my 68 130


That is a full 140-series booster and stand with a modified "foot"
Notice that I just "extended" the original lines to meet the new 140-style brake MC.
