If you update to the centa drive plus Phil Bleazeys kit it will feel exactly as you are used to but without the hassle of greasing..

It'll be interesting how my car performs with a new clutch and rollers and hope to get it back next week so will report then.



Tell us more. The B+C model is a Euro 3, so it does not have the gentler Euro 4 spec.

Mine also has the MMC Stage 1 exhaust and airfilter but also the 596 high lift cams.

At low to meduim revs the cars felt quite similar but mine has more punch at higher revs/higher gear due to the increased torque from the cams.

How many miles were on the car when you installed the cams? Did you do the Stage 1 and cams at the same time?

MMC stage 1 installed in 2 parts - the air filter at 7,200 miles and the exhausts at 7,500.

The air filter alone made no discernible difference but the exhausts transformed the car smile

Cam upgrade at 21,500 miles

Just got the engine out for Phil Bleazeys mods and these are the Centa rollers after 13,000 miles and 2 years of use. They are in surprisingly good condition, although starting to break up a bit at one end, the forward end I think but they all fell out as I removed the Centa. These were supplied to me as a "trial" set back in July 2017 by MMC, which suggests they are a slightly different compound to what was used before. The original 2015 items fell apart at 10,000 miles. Good news for all those owners with post mid 2017 cars? My cars engine produces a little over 90bhp with standard cams and G56 Stage 1 kit (on the dyno) and it does get "used" smile .

Just back from a most interesting and enjoyable few days being Bleazeyed’! Caught the rubbers JIT as only two rubbers were intact. One hard completely disintegrated having deposited itself in a coating around the Centa drive assembly and the other was in two pieces! Disaster about to occur!
Phil’s engineered master piece is well designed enabling all the smooth drive characteristics expected of a new car and certainly solves the problem of changing the Centa rollers without having to remove the engine. Just as any serviceable item should be.
All thanks to Phil.
