Lets just say if you know it a refurb and you don't mention it, you're just trying to be shady

Egay T0P

So the item I got on ebay was a refurb and not BRAND NEW in box as described. The question I asked seller went unanswered, Never provided shipping information but did get to me in a descent time frame. Sound like enough for a neutral feedback?

Then that also bumps up the price tag a couple of thousand... I wouldn't say a couple thousand unless your buying a brand new block I guess, but your right cheap 5.3s are much easier to come by then cheap 6.0s

Does SSA have a member map?

Tom, Have you considered dropping a 5.7 LS1? it seems kind of fitting. If your going 5.3 you might as well bump up to 6.0. Are you going to be running some kind of EFI?

You are in pretty much the same boat as I am. I currently have a 100.4 and plan on a 1500 in the future (and plan on the 250.2 *cough**cough*Sundown*cough*) but until then, you can run your comps passive and bridge 3/4 for 360W @ 4 ohms for your sub

They found bigfoot?!?!

Just ordered 85' of 1/0 wire, Dayton Plate amp and more RCAs (from 2 different locations)

Lol JimJ, you edited my post too. So for the record JimJ edited your post, not me http://www.zillaspeak.com/bib.asp has some info about BIB's

Hydrogen Kit

Unless the guy is going for a good long term scheme. He did a unit on his truck, posted pics and claimed an 8MPG increase with his silverado. He got 25 MPGs out of it. He is starting to sell a kit but he's a pretty respected member and has been there over a year. I also haven't heard anything bad about the fitch fuel catalyst, been loooking at that as well.

A guy on the LS1Truck forum made an HHO kit and its is really peaking my interest

Anyone object to the Yahoo League? If not. I'll go ahead and set it up. Just PM me your preferred email

Whoops, I edited your post instead of quoting it Anyway, to answer your question, Bigger is Better

Sounds great. Will flood a build log w/ pics soon!

Sweet. You think the MAW-10 will do fine on 180 Watts in a small room or should I look for another driver? I guess I need to start designing a box

Was rereading this and noticed I never really answered this question so i figured I'd bring this from the dead. But yes, the FR125's are a very on axis driver. Sitting directly in the center of my couch really increases the overall response of the driver. On axis you have a much more crisp high end and definitely more midrange response.

School is starting and I am looking to add a Sub to my BIB's. For amp duty I'm probably going with a Dayton plate amp (180 @ 8ohm and 240 @ 4ohm) Sub duty is another question... I have 2 options for the sub box. Option 1 - Small sealed under the corner table. I would guesstimate ~1.5 cubes net Option 2 - Shallow wide ported enclosure. Can pull out the couch little bit and create quite a bit of space behind it because of the way the wall and couch is designed. Don't have any good measurements but I think 4 cubes would not be a problem, and box can be as wide as a couch. I'm really leaning toward option 1 at the moment. I don't watch many movies so commanding low low end isn't much of a problem. A sealed box would be easy to carry in and fit universally. Currently I have a MAW-10 I was planning on putting in my truck but I could use it for this and buy a SD-1 V2 from Sundown for the truck, but the MAW could only run 8 ohm so it would be limited to 180 watts. This would make me really be NeonRider's copy cat , so if you have any input it Neon would be greatly appreciated. So whatcha think?

I did a 4.5" BIB setup and in my dorms they get plenty loud off of 15 Watts but in my buddies big living room I can max them out with 20-25 watts and want a lil more. I friggen love the BIB's though. Such a simple project and so much fun to build. I will be adding a small sub this year for my room

Now that is a good idea. I third the motion!

Saw a convertible mini that got in a 1 car incident and rolled this morning... Car wrecks with nice cars = sad

Mirror would need to mirrors since the damage is on the back
