brake sytem failure

hey all

as i am refurbishing my fc my brake pedal is awfully low and spongy, i already bled all the brakes and checked for leaks, so now what im thinking is that i have a faulty master cylinder and brake booster.

so OTHER than the dealer where can i go to get a new MC and Brake booster? for cheaper then $43 (dealer price) and the dont have a brake booster.

perhaps in the for sale section where people part out their cars? just a guess. and damn if your'e being hard up for money and it's 43 bucks i feel bad dude, i've been there. but if your'e only being stingent and picky i'd say spend the 43 dollars for saftery sake.
