Second thing is if you know where your panel is going, you can actually run PVC conduit in the slab and avoid installing the elbow boxes outside of your garage. Simply, you'll put a 90 degree bend sending the pipe upwards to the location of the panel.
Do you know what gauge wire I need for 100A, about 60 feet? You say 1" conduit, but I thought I'd need at least 1.5" for code?

Page 10 here:

shows 1.5" for 60A, with 6/3, but doesn't mention 100A
