If geared to keep the MM's temp in check and with a fan on the MM, it could work. However, I would bet that gearing would result in the motor being undergeared. That motor could draw a lot of current. I think those KB45XL motors are better with HV due to their higher power rating. (UH rates that motor at 3500+watts, and 5s2p A123 is capable of 2000watts peak, so at 2500watts that motor would require something like 250amps!)
