Single 13W7 ported 97 Camaro

[billy18bm 10+ year member]

first of all let me say im not a rookie at this ive built several boxes and i understand tuning and what not.

the reason im here is for ideas and feedback from my rough sketches.

I have a 97 camaro i plan on using the t-top holding area as part of my box. From what i have calculated i can get around 3 cubes...

with the area i have its a weird design and i am looking for any other ideas. The w7 is so big that i cant mount it normally. I will have to invert it for it to fit unless there is another way that i am not thinking about.

here are my sketches, im not sure where i want to place the port exactly but none of the spots are really good because of the way the box is designed. I have thought about putting a slope onto the box but there is still no way the w7 would fit so it would be pointless. Im just curious what everyone thinks about airflow in this box(i think it will be rough..)

BUMP! im just wondering about the air flow of the box. ANYONE?..

it will be fine, i would do the port to the rear of the hatch

How are you going to invert this? Mounting depth is over 11", i don see anyway that box wont hit the ear hatch glass

aeroport?

 

[billy18bm 10+ year member]

from looking at the hatch it appears to be like a foot and a half of space.

i thought about aero ports but it seems like with this amount of space i would need alot of port...and where do you suggest i put them?

im come to the conclusion that a w7 will not fit im thinking 2 12" type-x's or 2 Kicker L712's.....

now my questions is how much port area should i have with a box thats 3.48 cuft after displacement.

if a W7 will not fit then how will 2 of those subs fit?

mounting depth...

a w7 is 10.5 inches. a type x is like 8ish n an L7 is like 6ish..

mounting depth im pretty sure.

edit: too slow.

you got any ideas on how much port area i would need for 3.4 cubes...just wondering
