I have been searching for a replacement VDrive to mate up to a Paragon Gears PV-41R Transmission. The engine is a Chrysler M440 Reverse Rotation. While I have found a couple out there, they are either really rough or very expensive. In searching through the interweb, there are tons of marine transmissions and vdrives out there. I would like to explore other brands of transmission/vdrive combos out there, but am not sure what models will match the current set up.

From the documentation - the Paragon PV41R is a 1 to 1 ratio and the Vdrive is listed at a 20 degree angle.

The drivetrain is going back into a boat with brand new stringers so I have some flexiblity with mounting. Must be a vdrive though as there is no way to reconfigure as a direct drive.

Thanks!

This might be to late for you since I think I saw your boat for sale on EBay 08/2015. But this might be a good repair for your cracked vdrive.
