Comparing one of the new 6 phase hairpin SMD 370's to a Leece Neville, is like comparing a Ferrari to a 57 Chevy. LN units use 60 year old technology, and have virtually no airflow to cool the stator or rectifier, which is why they fail all the time when pushed past 300 amps or so. Also, even though they are HUGE (too big to fit on most passenger vehicles) they are not capable of anywhere near the idle output of the SMD 370. Leece Nevilles are pretty much boat anchors. You can't touch 6 phase hairpin stator technology in terms of performance, efficiency, or durability. That's funny, you won't see any small cases on any vehicles that require real amperage output....

I sent a message on facebook asking this question but I'm not sure if you guys check those much. So I will ask again here. I'm planning on running 2 of the 1ohm DVC ZVX-12's in a ported box on a 2500.1. But while I'm trying to get the box figured out I needed to know how much port area 2 of these will need at 1250w to each sub.

You are better off building a new PC. You are about six years behind the times man. The ati radeon express 200 is the graphics chipset used on the motherboard. -

Without knowing the actual model of motherboard it's hard to say what you can do. But being an older gateway I will bet it's safe to say you don't have many options, at least none that would be worth spending your money on. -
need advice here

What he said ^^. And also I don't know if you have any experience buying a house, but don't expect to be able to purchase a home for a least a year and a half to two years after you start your job. And that's if you have great credit. Not trying to be a buzz kill but that's just how the financial system is right now. -

It's only an hour away. I did that commute for 7 years. I'm not really seeing what would be holding you back if you will be making double what you are now.... -
I would get some shrink tubing for the ends, and you will need a torch and solder or if you prefer to crimp a large crimper. Don't forget zip ties so you can tie up the wires nicely, and you will need a way to clean off the metal you will use for a chassis ground.

I knew I shouldn't have gotten excited about them because something was going to go wrong and yup, it did. Maybe I just should get excited about stuff anymore hahaha Any more I just expect to be let down. Then if everything actually goes right I'm ecstatic. Hmm that's sounds like a good way of looking at things! I might just steal that from you.. Yeah my wife always says that I'm a grouchy pessimist but it keeps me from stressing out when everything that can go wrong always does. I just expect it and it doesn't bother me as bad. But like I said if everything goes right I'm like a teenage girl at a Justin Beiber concert at the front of the stage with him grinding his junk on the top of my head. Descriptive...that's how I roll lol.

Yeah man mistakes happen, but I have the same kind of luck that you do. Shit like that happens to me all the time and it does really bum you out.

That really sucks, and what sucks worse is they built the custom for you so you would think they would get the size driver correct....

I also have never fused my charge wire from the alt to battery. As long as you run the wire where it won't rub or get cut there is no need to.

yeah ur right this is exactly what i need....but too much money for my taste....but if thats what its gonna take i guess im gonna have to save....you guys think its worth the money??? Please don't take this the wrong way, but if you are spending all that money on quality audio equipment and are going the extra mile of making a motorized amp rack, what's another 100 bucks to do the job right?

Oooooo more info please! I wish I knew how to build a unit like this for smaller applications. I sold my old motor maul a long time ago so I don't even have anything to reference off of any more. But the unit I had was good for 400 amps which is WAY to big for what the OP is needing. He only needs a 5 to 10amp circuit.
