Has anyone attempted this? Curious on seat height, placement, front to rear travel, etc. I’m sure anything can be done, and rare for anything to be as easy as to drill and bolt right. More curious on how much work it would require.

A friend put Hellcat seats in his 70.....not sure what mods were required. He also used a Hellcat console. Sorry I do not have photos.

SRT seats, while extremely comfortable are very large, bulky and heavy. They would look out of place in an E-body IMO. If you want modern seats check out BMW 3 or 5-series seats, the Brits have been putting them in restored and LS powered Land Cruisers and they always look amazing

I have a 5 series, I dunno if I'd call them comfortable for long drives, but then again I have a bony derriere.

What seats are those? Aftermarket? I'll have to ask him. I thought he used SRT seats, but I could be wrong on that.
Kayse can't keep up at all now. lol
