    Good vid, Doug. Looking forward to your revised Mule system. So many good mini amplifier and dsp options out there that could probably fit under the seat or the dash. Still going to need some room for bass, though. Hate to see that box go, if that's the decision. It was a lot of fun to watch you build it, and it obviously won't find another home. Also, I hope you're not serious about dropping the bass van. You've put in a lot of investment and killed a lot of trees to get to where you are on that project.

    You should have installed a 12W7 ported or a 13W7 sealed on the mule, more output than that little 8W7. But an 82 to 87 El Camino would have been a much better project for both an engine swap and a killer sound system, you have the room behind the seats for two 15s.

    Get an extended cab OBS and build a fiberglass box with 12 15s in it. Wouldn’t be a full bass van build and it would bump. Local shop had one set up like that. Had 12 JL 15W0 or 1s on a wildly under powered punch amp. Still hit 150s which was high for the day.
