[QUOTE="SlugButter, post: 8855535, member: 678073"] This isn’t going to work very well unless you’re very experienced at designing and building. If you were to try it, you’d have to match the amount of air the ports displace exactly to the amount of air the radiator displaces. VD. You’d have to design the box as if it has 3 ports of exactly the same size and length. The 2 ports would have to be sized exactly to the amount of air the radiator moves and tuned as if there are 3 ports in the box. The radiator would then be weighted and tuned to match the ports tuning exactly. It’s not that it can’t be tried, but I’m not really seeing a reason to do it. The 2 ports are already taking up space in the box, so the space saving benefit of using radiators is already moot. You’d also need to start from scratch and build an entirely new box. Modifying an old box with a radiator is not going to work. [/QUOTE]
