Vented box for 8" RE8

Vented box for 8" RE8
Looking to build a vented box for a single RE8. Just wondering if this looks like it would be a good fit.
12" x 12" x 10.5" (H x W x D) exterior dimensions
3/4" MDF
1" port diameter, approx 2.685" length, or 1.5" port, 6.691" length
Wanting to be tuned to roughly 35hz, does that look about right for the port length given those diameters?
Thanks in advance for any info!

I used the formula found on this page
MTX Mobile Audio - Education
Using that, I get 12.36" length for a 2" port. Does that look right?
For a 1.5" port, I get 6.68".
Trying to keep the box size down, RE8 info shows 0.5cuFt ported box as optimal so that's what i'm trying to do.

those subs hit awsome lows in the right box...fs is 22.8Hz with 1" p=p xmax...awsome for a cheap 8" ... I got 3 in my jetta hits 143dB and plays all kinds of music
I use 1 cuft after displacement and a 4" aero port 18" long
