nice cherry bombs, also, back on topic....hears an idea, toss the bench seat and get 2 individual seats, if i remember, my buddy put in some camaro/firebird deats in his 89 1500...pretty much bolt right in. that way you can build a sub console and hav the sub down firing towards the floor...many reg. cab truck go this route, and it looks pretty good IMO...........

just an idea

there mid length headers hold on lemme get a pic (i love em so much there in my room)

i custom made those exhaust tips and had them painted with some special paint .... long story to it

unfortunatly a 305 for now but the most important part is its a 5 speed standard!! ima getting a 350 and going **** out on it maybee a supercharger(turbo would be better but supercharger is cooler) but its a project for the future

lol bro trust me i spent alot of time choosing my exhaust. btw those mufflers are off my dads old dodge (2005 hemi they were on it fer bout 10 months b4 we traded it in and that was a bad choice.....) and it was true dual and omfg it sound soooooooo nice and was loud!!!!(threw a pic in of it)

Subwoofer Enclosure Calculators, Fraction to Decimal, Parallel, Series, Port Length and Volume Calculators

Use this link to calculate your box dimensions properly. Use volume calculator - wedge enclosure 2. This will tell you what the gross volume of the box is. Next break out the cardboard and build the box out of cardboard to ensure it fits. If the subs are hitting the seat at all, you are going to be buying new subs within a week.

Again, have cash ready for the delivery guy so that you can pay the brokerage charge, gst and duty.(let us know what that totals to as well). A deal is only as good as it is IF it is right for the application. If the subs you have are too deep for the space or there is not enough volume in the box for them, then the deal is not right for the application. You sort of went about it the wrong way, live and learn. If it is what you now have to work with, it is what you have to work with. Car audio is all about learning, from mistakes, from others experiences and from total failure. I know that I used to do it totally a$$ backwards for years when I first started in it and the commission salesman loved me for it. I probably made that guys paycheque month after month for a couple of years straight. If only I had then the advice that is available now.

These kenwoods are a great sub if your just getting into the car audio scene. I sketched this up for you and hopefully it'll work to your advantage.

0.875 cubic feet per chamber
The smaller size will help with the power handeling of the subwoofer
