I am too lazy to look up the t/s for your subs

I used the winisd settings for rf punch he 12. Is this the right sub? If it is 35 will be fine. You will get a 3.7 db hump at 50, and f3 of about 31. Build the box common chamber to cut down on port length. This will allow you to get much more port area also. I would shoot for 50 square inches of port, which comes out to a 22 inch port for tuning to 35.

Yeah as long as the port is the right diameter and length it should be fine.
