OK we need to recalculate something, 4.91 cu meters is around 173 cu ft. Are you sure its not 4.91 cu ft???? If it is I can work with that. Well I need to study for a Graduate Research test.
yeh 4.91 cu ft m8 thanks for the help m8 using a few forums to try and get some advice your the only one thats answered ..cheers m8 . looks like the box could be tagged with RANGER svo ... the box is going in between the 2 jvc subs next to the compartment devider in the front facing the camera...(me)
If you use a port that has a cross sectional area of 40 sq in, then the port needs to be 13 to 14-inches long So a 40 sq in port can be 1 inch tall by 40 inches long or 1.5 inches tall by 26.67 inches long or 2 inches tall by 20 inches long or 3 inches tall by 13.3 inches long etc.
thank Ranger im going to go with the 2 inches tall by 20 inches long. i will post photos of the build and your name on it if it sounds good lol. thanks fella . mick
