Our main objective was to rebuild both the top and bottom end to ensure our 380 engine has a long life. In addition we kept a keen eye out for anything else suspect that needed attention and ordered replacement parts where needed, such as the kick-start pawl spring. We also made a few performance modifications to spruce up mighty 380 a little bit yet not go over-board.
