The magnetic draw will not allow proper voice coil movement because it was designed for power to come thorugh both voice coils. Putting the sub in a larger box designed for one voice coil is a band aid fix until you measurre the new physical and electrical Q of the driver. Anyone know how to do that? Explain it please... and don't quote some box program equation either...
Mr. T asked for a way to wire them up... dnewma04, you did that part by only wiring two VCs, but now you need to tell him how to rebuild his box to fit the new drivers he's created. 
WHooohooo....it starts again.

.....Brad, Dave and I have discussed this till we were both blue in the face (basically you summed up what I had said)......
As for the parameters, get yourself a woofer tester from PE and you can get the specs very easily. I really dont think there is a more practical way to calc all the specs needed.
Edit: Just noticed your response Dave, got to read it then I get back with ya's
