The port is too narrow at 5cm i reckon it's going to chuff like crazy and won't sound any good. I don't understand the low tuning either, why buy an 18 that plays lower and tune it below the cars peak resonat fq and still above anything that's musical and suited to an 18'' driver...
Oh and another thing, i think you've rushed into this and you have a couple of design fllaws. You say the port can't be any taller because the driver will hit it, well then the port should have been built on the side not on the bottom below the driver magnet. Also, from what i can see you won't have any acsess to the port for tuning. An spl box isn't just built and done with, there's a lot of tuning and testing involved. You need to make the enclosure so yu can acses the port and modify the tuning.
If you can't do this with a slot design, then sticl with a round port. You can have to the port partially in / out of the enclosure until you decide on the length after testing.
