Interesting to hear your feedback. We considered doing this with our Lemons Fiero since it has no transmission in the way, and one of our drivers is 6'8". We figured it would allow us to lower the floor pan and reduce it's structural concerns, and box out the area. We ended up going with ultra-low seat mounts, and pushing the pan down just a bit, and shortening the pedals. I still think a caged seat mount would of been awesome. |
Yeah, there's nothing inherently wrong with doing it that way. We would have no problem doing that on a customer car if required. In fact, some Trans Am cars we work on are built exactly that way (tube frame chassis).
