[QUOTE="lance9386, post: 8581250, member: 569150"] So I've slowly been working on the truck.. bed liner on the floor, started on roof bracing, etc.. (I'm going to start a build thread soon and start posting pictures). Originally I planned on placing my batteries in the back of the truck. The way this truck is built, there is a hump that runs along the rear of the cab that is 5" higher than the floor. So to get a level surface to mount the box on I have to build a floor. No problem.. but it got me thinking, why not come up a little bit higher with the floor and run my batteries under there? The height on the D3100 is roughly 8.5" so I would need to increase the floor height 4 or 5 inches. What I don't know is how this will affect the bass response, this will put the subs and port firing off of the roof with a distance of about 10" between the two. I know generally you want a port's width distance away from a surface.. Thoughts? CSCStang, this isn't using the box design from you, this is testing with one that I already have from a past system. With the new dimensions, the space would be 14" without the port extension and about 9" with the port extension for distance between port and roof. [/QUOTE]
