bigrank916 MLI-65 project
Well it depends on the headunit, some just buy an external crossover if they dont plan on spending the big bucks for a headunit that can do the active process (which are only a few). Im just gonna use my amps and call it a day since Im not getting in SQ comps or anything, I am gonna buy a better headunit but not one that will control a three way by it self just dont see me spending more thatn 300 for a headunit.

You can use your amps (like stated in my going active thread) but you wont get the fine tuning or best front stage with just the amps. You will be missing out on time alignment and other features that a good head unit will give you but it can be done with just amps.

help with sub & port placement
Im gonna say subs/port up or subs/port forward firing but if you are looking for the best option that will require some testing unless someone with a Dodge Ram has done testing and could chime in for you.

SAZ 1500D or 2000D for Nightshade 18"
I would plan the system out smarter than that so you wont be waisting money in the long run. Such as buy one sub now at D1 version so when you buy the other one you will already have the right voice coil's on them. Now if you want the Nightshades v2, then I would just start saving up for an amp to each or one single amp however you plan on doing it so you can get the amps out the way while waiting on the subwoofers. This will also allow you to get you car ready for the install such as wiring, electrical and such.

What size speake wire for 2 BLs and 2600w Amp
Mr ***** ***** himself. I didn't know his name was a curse word... cover your ears kids! lol Save money and get 10 or 12. You can pick up jumper cables at Menards and Fleet Farm, (don't know what stores are near you put that's what I got), for plenty cheap and use them for speaker wire; they usually have straight copper in them. Yeah I stole this idea from this guy and they work out well plus all copper strands baby, FTW! Saved me money also, when it comes to speaker wire it wont be that much of a difference in what you use (nothing noticeable).
