Also picked up some 921 woofers that Great Plains Audio said can be reconed into 416 woofers. I have to figure out a cross over network yet.
Does anyone see any gaping holes in my plans?
Thanks

On Edit, GPA confirmed that my drivers are 908 and someone changed the diaphragms to the ones used in the 808-8b. Looks like I will be using the 908's in my build.
I can comment on the 921 woofers. I run 2 pair in my 817 cabs. They are good woofers. Basically a newer version of the 421.
I also have some 421 woofers that were reconed as 416. Difference is they use solid dustcaps (since the 421/921 are rear vented). This seems to bump the midbass slightly over a 416. They sound good. I have been running them in some 828 cabs. I cant comment on how the setup would sound OB

Good luck with your build
