Yeah, just like a few steam catapult launches from a flat-top make a '69 Yenko seem "slowish."
But seriously, my non-scientific rule of thumb with OBs run much below f-equal is to imagine the volume displacement of an equivalent sealed system and then quadruple it if you want to end up with dynamic headroom.
With those drivers on your baffle width, and knowing a bit about your taste in SPL (thanks again for hosting that horn club meet), I'd personally start with a ~100Hz highpass and add a couple 15s below. Even then, you may still decide you need a sealed/ported sub below ~30-40hz.
