I have mine underneath my box, which is in the T-Top well. Its an Rockford Fosgate Punch 800.2. I have yet to have an overheating problem with it, even when playing it loud.

I haven't had any problems at all with my amps overheating. One's IN the spare tire and one is behind it, and both work great!

Hey Larry,

Sorry, I'm not a man. I'm a chick. And I work out of Elgin School Dist U46- I'm sure you've heard of it. Have you checked out the MFBA (midwest Fbody assoc?) www.mfba.org is the address.

You should come to one of our meetings! We have quite a few members that live in Elgin. Hope to see you on the board,
Whitney

Sorry about the whole man thing....if you're a chick, good, that works for me! LoL

I'd come to a meet...my only issue is being 1900 miles away in Arizona, so I doubt I'll be making it to one anytime soon!
Take it easy

Hopefully my homepage comes up. Geocities has been really flaky lately. I doubt you'd want to spend as much time as I did building mine, but that's the kind of thing I love to do and I think it was worth it to get the results.
