Default stealth box dimensions

I want to know if anyone has the dimensions on the stealth box (every cut angle, etc.) i am going to build the box becasue for me it is a lot easier than buying one. also does a 12" fit in the box?

Use some cardboard and start fabbing. It's not difficult, but it'll take some time. And yes, a 12" sub will fit if you are careful. IMO, it is well worth the money to simply purchase a pre-fab box. Once you factor in the cost of the wood, carpet, speaker terminals, etc the $112 is a pretty good price. http://www.subthump.com/acamarostealth.htm

i wont be cheaper for me because i build boxes on a regular basis, so i already have the board, screws, glue, and terminals. i just need to get some cardboard to mok up the box.

Also, there is the carpet insert that you can use as a basic outline. If you build boxes regularly it shouldn't be too bad. Just make sure that you give yourself plenty of room so that the T-tops don't hit the thick surround on your woofer.

How many people end up putting a 12 in their stealth boxes? Im pretty happy with the 10" but if I can stuff a 12 in there I wouldnt mind.

Not many because it requires a lot of very careful planning. There is just enough room if you make the box out of fiberglass, and there is even less room if you make the box out of wood. It can be done, but it's a lot easier to put a 12 in a passenger side box. Of course, this means removal of the spare though....
