You're not saying how you arrived at the dimensions and internals of your enclosures. I started a similar project with some vintage JBL 14" woofers. Who makes enclosures with 14" openings? No one. So I got a circle jig for my router and did that. Done? No. Looked into it further and found books on speaker enclosure design. Turns out there is quite a bit to it. The dimensions, volume, whether to port, and if so, how, all depends on your driver's Thiele/Small parameters. Hopefully you can find these parameters in a database somewhere. Design software may include them. For instance:

I bought a book and did the math manually. Pages and pages of it. Not doing this again...
