Amp Mounting/Cooling

I have a RF 501s bridged pushing two RF HE2 10"s. I am planning on carpeting the spare tire wheel well and then mounting the amp and capicator on some fiberboard inside it. My question is if I lay carpeted fiberboard over the wheel well and then mount two fans (I was thinking two maybe three 120mm High output fans - 2 push & 1 pull) will that keep the amp from getting too hot. Should I use a bigger fan. I am driving a 95 Saturn SC1 and the trunk is linned with Dynamat Xtreme and Reg.

That sound like it would be fine, only you'd probably want the same number of fans pushing as there are pulling.  Otherwise the one thats pulling will just be slowing down the 2 that are pulling.

I am really worried about my amp overheating. Is there a rule of thumb to what temp range an amp can run at properly? I heard that if an amp overheats too many times that it could destroy the amp. I have already had it overheat once, and it was just mounted to the back of my sub box in the trunk.

Well it kinda depends on how it was wired. If you have two dvc subs and are running it at one ohm than thats your problem right there. That amp is only 2 ohm stable. If you are running it at 4 ohms than you arent gonna have a problem with it overheating at all but the power output is gonna be way less. Same if its running two ohm stereo. I gotta think that you were probally doing 1 ohm mono and if you were I dont think the fans are gonna help enough to stop it from shutting down. You may wanna look at a one ohm mono stable amp like the JBL 1200.1 or something of that nature to push your subs

Actually they aren't 1-ohm, They are 8-ohm subs wired down two 4-ohm. The amp matches them perfectly. The amp pushes somethin in the low 500 RMS and the two subs only need about 250-300 RMS each. So I don't think that is the problem. Are RF Punch amps know to overheat? BTW I have 8 ga. wiring, but that should be enough for such little power? I am puzzled why it overheated. Although I havent had that problem again since that one time. But it also has been in the 50's all week. The day it overheated it was like 85 outside and only knows what it was inside my trunk.
