I had Michael "Mercury" Morris overhaul my Tost P.O.S. err I mean drum
brake. The new pads and blueprinting (as described by Bob and others in this thread) significantly improved braking and fade resistance. In addition, Mr Morris found and corrected a worn/ovalized actuator arm and hole on my Tost. I would recommend Mr. Morris and his modifications highly. That said, there is NO comparison between a (modified) Tost drum and a Cleveland disc brake. Putting anything less than a 500X5 Cleveland on a modern glider is ignorant.
