What's your thought on enclosure type, also should I ad the tweeter and what type of x-over, or should I utilize 'full range?'

Prefer 1-2 cubic/ft sealed enclosure. Thanks!!! (blue line on chart)

I can't make out the notes on your attachment. Could you give a brief description of you two different cabinets?

OK. I'm with the program.

You have the Betsy-K. (You did actually buy a pair, didn't you?) You have no options. You will have to use a sealed box. It is remotely possible that it will go into a BR, but it will be huge. Again, you might fit it into a BiB.

The graphs you are looking at were most likely made on an OB. The clue is that the higher Q Betsy goes lower in the bass than the lower Q Betsy-K. This is why you would choose a high Q driver for an OB application. Actually, everything you need to know is on that product page.
