[QUOTE="nkrell11, post: 8535262, member: 645505"] Thanks man it's going to be slow going, I travel for work so time is limited. Currently talking with a singer rep about getting an alt. I bought an external regulator so that's one more thing off the list. A couple delays are the holidays spent quite a bit on everyone so it puts a damper on build spending, additionally getting the steel pillars machined for the motors is proving difficult my friends family has a machine shop but they're really slammed as of now. The motors are one of the first things I want to have done. Thanks for following though I'm sorry I tend to ramble. Ok disclaimer this is might come off as rude but I'm not trying to be. My rough measurement with carpet, headliner and floor carpet in are 42W, 36H, 53D which equates to 80,136 IN^3 when divided by 12^3 comes out to 46.375 FT^3. These measurements allow for about a foot at the bottom for batteries (since I plan to use lithium I don't foresee needing a ton of space) additionally under the front there could/will be space where batteries could/may be mounted. Additionally I do feel four 18's is certainly doable. This build utilized 4 18's and I feel they wasted some space that I can get back with steel.
