I just went through this. I had to do some searching but you only use the port length not physically length.

So like you did measure front to back down the center line and subtract half the port. Then measure from the centerline to the right and left the remainder of the port length. Also you don't divide it both sides will be 22 " long measured from each centerline of the port.

I have noticed from your screen shots that you are doing a double baffle,so you need to add that to Torres under "# of extra baffles" as that will change your net volume and tuning.

Yes that is correct. Your ext. Left and right will be 3" long each. Add that to .75 + half your port which is 1.75 . Add them together and you have 5.5" then + 16.5 = 22 " port length. Hopefully that makes sense.
