1380cc engines?

Evening folks,

Forgive my ignorance, as I've been away from the scene for a good two decades, but is the 1380cc engine still an option for the Spridgets? I've searched a bit on the forum and it seems most postings relating to engine builds of this type are at least 10 years old on average. Also, some of the old websites offering DIY kits seem to be defunct. Is the 1380 a thing of the past now?
 
No, there are still plenty of folks building and running 1380’s today in Spridgets and Mini’s.
Good to hear! Who are the trusted suppliers for 1380 components? Any particular shop or supplier I should look to as an authority?

Just trying to regain some of the tribal knowledge as I start refreshing the Sprite.
