My amp was installed by myself $250 save at least. and I mounted it on top of my sub box its an MTX 801D monoblock with no fans
 its powering 2 10" thunder 7500s and its in my trunk (hatchback). Even when i'm going down the freeway at 80 with the seats down it still overheats then 5 min later i can turn it on again for like 10 min. How can i keep it from overheating?

UMm i got the JL audio 500/1 add in the manual it requires that if mounted, there should be at least an inch and a 3 quarters from the overhead view of the amp, and all around except the bottom, and i guess the amp shouldnt be in direct sunlight so thats all i can think of
