Well the time has come...

I have always wanted a vehicle dedicated to just stereo, and the other day I found one i've always wanted so I pulled the trigger on it.

1996 2 Door Tahoe, 350 Small Block 4WD.

Still unsure exactly what is going to happen to this poor truck, but it will be Evil to say the least.

Stay tuned....

    Well, i'm thinking about it right now, I have all the time in the world to decide what to do with it.   If you sat in Zach Metts Astro, or Navid's Expedition, you would probably agree with me on this

    I agree.  A more agressive tire does really set off the look of these trucks.  I really like the Goodyear Duratrac's and would recommend them to anyone.  While technically an all terrain tire, they're

Gotta get it past inspection as the the first step..

 

Once it's road worthy, i'll approach the stereo design.  I need the truck to be light enough to drive far distance, so no massive weight in this one, so my initial thoughts are 4 18" Evils in a BP.  

 

Thoughts....

Can't wait to see this build!

sweet truck,.

 but  i have to ask .. i assume its automatic trans, how far was it towed like that in neutral ?

Nice! I'd like to see the 18's in a ported wall tuned low. How much power are you planning on?

Cant wait to hear this

Great find!!! Gotta ask why BP though?

BP?

Bandpass

You said the evils in a BP.....

Nice truck.  I'm super excited!!!  bigjon, I was thinking the same thing. I remove my drive shaft when I tow like that.  29 miles won't hurt.  Anyway, congrats Mark.  Can't wait for the pics.  I've been looking for a suburban myself... 4 SSA Evils is going to be crazy.

Why bandpass?

Better question, why not a bandpass?

Should be a fun build, wish I was closer...

4 18s in a Bp. Gonna be a decent sized enclosure

When you build.... I will come.... literally... I'll make the drive to Putnam.... No question about it... maybe I'll have the Camry looking better... or at least sounding better.... lol

Because it's an open space cabin. For Mark's needs perhaps a 6th order, but BP'ing a 4th order would be a waste of wood.
Until all options are explored, there is no right answer or end-all option, I was merely trying to encourage others to tell me why they asked Mark what enclosure he would go with.
