    I'm going to put in a 10 point Chrome Moly cage but really don't want to put in race seats.... The car is a full weight, full interior car on the cusp of being a race car but I drive it on the street a bit....not much but don't want just a race car... My GS seats I imagine are just too big for the bigger cage. Car runs high 9's with the super charger.... Are there any seats that anyone knows of that will fit? I can have them covered to match the interior...
    Just trying to maintain the street appearance of the car.

    Chuck a good fabricator will build a cage around your seats, I have seen several caged cars with stock seats.

    You shouldn't have any problem with the factory bucket sets, just place the bars accordingly, with the seats installed. Make sure you install the required back brace for the seat back, and then put a foam pad and covering on it to protect the seat. The seat back brace does not have to be fastened to the seat. It just has to sit up against it.

    No issue here.

    Chuck,

    You shouldn't have any problems. My seats are fine with the bar in my car.

    Thanks guys. I'll to talk Jeff... I think I gave him the impression that I was going for the full competition look.... I'm a bit wishy-washy.... Want race car speed to cruise with a street car look....I've already crossed the street/strip line.. I think....
