1993 Chevy Silverado 1500 Build
Hello,
I'm new here so please inform me if at any point i'm doing something that is against forum rules.
The Basics:
Vehicle- 1993 Chevy Silverado 1500
General- This will not be an epic world record build in any way.
I am a senior in Mechanical Engineering so both time and money is limited.
I try to do the best with what resources I have and can afford.
On the side I have installed numerous sound systems for fellow university students.
Majority of it being prefab that people simply have me install.
I have also built a number of custom sealed boxes, and a small handful of ported ones for people to use.
I have fiber glassed once and I learned the hard way through trial and error.
This is my first aero/circular port build.
I have too many hobbies and not enough time or money.
I appreciate all feedback positive or negative as long as it is indeed feedback with suggestions and not just slandering.
I WILL BE ASKING LOTS OF QUESTIONS AND SEEKING ADVICE!
