Box design if possible please.

Currently i have a custom sealed box i made for my kicker cvr 12 inch. I was thinking about trying out ported, and then selling or giving away the box i didnt use whatever i decide, since i have extra mdf and carpet etc.

Anyways i may not even be able to do ported, but here are the dimensions that they need to be to fit behind my seat in my truck.

Depth - 9 inches bottom, 7 inches top, this is a wedge box and has to be this short of a depth to fit in my truck.

Height - 14 inches, cannot be anymore or i run into the plastic trim for the panel going over the back wall.

Length - This is where i can go long, i dont want to run over 44 inches here.

Would this even be possible to make into a good ported box for my kicker, the minimum cuft off kicker.com is 1.75 for ported. Right now my box is 30inches i believe and 1.3 sealed. Would this affect sound to have such a short but long box, would i be better just keeping my sealed?

Also, i dont know what tuning to make it since its not specified on kicker.com, so if someone could post this if you know.

Ok i just read around and found the RE enclosure calculator, so i decided to use it, does this look good to you guys, or is it too long and to shallow for a good ported. I went off a tuning of 35 as recommended by some people, if this is wrong mention it also please.
