When designing a cage, is a front hoop and rear hoop setup better or is 2 side hoops better? I'm trying to settle an argument.

I'm gonna say front and rear because you are more likely to roll over sideways than endo or some ****.
All depends on the potential loads. Most go b hoop and bent a-pillars to the b pillar. Others us a b hoop and halo with a pillar tie ins

a monoblock amp is an amp with only one set of outputs. if that is a 2 channel amp, you don't want to bridge it. Bridging it will present a 4 ohm load on the amp, and you will have about half the power as you would running it at two ohms. If the amp is two ohm stable, just run it red-red black-black, red-red black-black.
let's make this easier. what kind of amp are you using, i can draw you a sweet paint diagram
2010 VW Jetta - DD, 5 Banger, 5 Speed, 1000 Watts of sound!!
1979 Ford Bronco Custom - 400/T18/205.. 35" SSRs, 4" lift, Rancho 5000s, 200 watts of sound!!
Huh? So you are saying bridging the channels, thus reducing resistance will cut your power output? Go re read your physics book.
Travis find out what the amp is stable at then wire you voice coils and amp to match. Wiring them in parallel will be have the ohms of one coil, in series will add the ohms together. Then run to the amp. Same thing goes for the amp outputs, bridged will reduce ohms at the amp. Too little resistance gives you a lot of bang but can over heat your amp.

You can start there. 2 ohms is normal. If you burn it up get a new one.

What ohm rating are the coils on the subs?

Run them in series and bridge at the amp.
