You said you're looking for the RMS. You can measure it yourself, first get a digital multimeter. Read the post 'Amp Calculations' for info on how to do it.

Just a guess on the big three question: I would think 1) battery ground cable 2) alternator 3) battery

Build the box so that it performs well in the worst case scenario and, in return, it will reward you at all times.
