I like my Jazz Pro Stock style seat. The seat cover that I have isn't available anymore. Mine is bolted directly to floor, with metal welded to chassis. There are adjustable seat tracks available. https://www.jegs.com/i/JAZ-Products/547/100-100-01/10002/-1

Jaz akuminum pro stock. Look right, fit right, light. The big Kirkeys are just too big to look right.

If the results don't match the theory, change the theory.

Actually just pulled the old Jaz out of my car today and am working on installing a Kirkey Pro Street seat. I think it is like the ones Jerico has in his car. Part number is 55170.

OP, do you use a HANS? A head restraint type seat is really the only seat that should be allowed if you are wearing a race type harness. This is mine, which I had custom sized, my son has a FG head restraint Racetech. https://board.moparts.org/ubbthread...nger-track-day-protour-practice-car.htmlPic #80 Note, Dale #3's death occurred with contact with a concrete wall at a closing speed of 42+ mph, resultant forces estimated to be between 65-49 g's during an 80 ms impulse, meaning a 200lb driver will impart maybe 9800lbs of force into the seat/restraint/mounting system.

Reality check, that half the population is smarter then 50% of the people and it's a constantly contested fact.

Fabbed seat mounts. Got the guy lower in the car. Saved 80lb over the factory seats and mounts with the Jaz seats..

I have the 2010,2011 Dodge Challenger Drag Pack seats in my Charger, got them from Jegs. Hmmmm... Anyone got an idea what an OEM E-body bucket seat weighs? Wondering how much difference there might be between a pair of the OEMs and a pair of the ones Mr. CSK posted above, which are about 40#s each.
