Congrats on the new purchase, the alweld should do fine with that motor on the back but would be alot better of with a boat built for one of these motors. The boat should hold up just fine if your not running alot of stumps. Also you dont have to yell at us we are right here ![]() |

X2, Slick boats perform better in the super shallows and mud, but I run a MM on a 1648 war eagle. It works just fine in the coastal texas marshes. |

I ran a 36 PD on a 15/48 Alweld for 3 years and just had some minor problems with the transom!!I think you will be going with a bigger motor before changing boats ![]() |

I have a 36 prodrive and I had the same problem with the filter cover. Call Peck at Prodrive and he will send you a new one. There is a tack weld on the screw running through the middle of the filter. If you bump the filter on something it can loosen this tack weld and the filter cover will fall off. Congrats on the new motor and look forward to meeting you at the LA mud run. |

Also, those filter covers don't float ......at all!!!!!! You donated it to the bottom of the lake. |

should have called pro drive they probably would have hooked you up with one since you just bought the motor from them |
