Some have been machined to accept traditional bearings. OE was babbit. Water pump rope packing goes out and is a standard replacement item. There are pumps avail with bearings and seals today. If it hasn't been, convert to electronic ignition. Bangers are fairly robust engines but do need periodic maintenance.

An Ardun head with McCulloch supercharger would be a cool upgrade.
