November 22, 200915 yr sure, it should work well...... the calculations i'm seeing puts the 36x18x18 at a little less than 4.7cuft though, right around 4.4 after all displacements..... that won't hurt anything though as it's still well inside the range.... I should add that this is if you're using a slot port @ 12sqin of port per cuft.... if you're going with a 6" aero then its just right.......... Edited November 22, 200915 yr by Alton

November 24, 200915 yr all measurement are in inchesbut they are all the internal dimensions of the box, correct? I know that you probably know that external dimensions don't matter other than fitting it into the vehicle, but I'm just asking to be sure.
November 24, 200915 yr Author the external dimensions are 36 x 18 x 18 the port is 3.5" wide and should be 16.5" tall
November 25, 200915 yr Did you plug your external dimensions into the box calculator?Unless it asks for the thickness of the wood, then you should plug in your internal dimensions. My box is 18.5x17.75x32.5 internally, and after all displacements, it's only 4.35cuft... I didn't actually plug it into a calculator, but I'm thinkin' 4.7cuft is would be the volume if your external dimensions were really your internal dimensions. Better check that.
