You are the only other person I know who has turned the box over, put the 811 on top, and a baffle in the hole where the 811 horn was. I did this about a decade ago and I listened to them for a while but traded the speakers for a H-K Citation II. They were my first introduction to Altecs.
I never got very fancy with the baffle, just used the opening size recommended by Altec. I made my own crossover replicating the Altec. One further point: the 802 driver does not fit well inside the Valencia cabinet as it is longer than the 806, but by taking the horn out of the cabinet you can go to the 802 driver.
