Looking for "good" safe comfortable racing seats for a C-4 vette.

Thanks!

I really like the Cobra Suzuka. You can commute using this seat if you needed to...ultra strong, ultra comfortable, light, and easy to mount. They also make a GT model (wider) if you're a large individual. That plus Gary Hoffman's (Hardbar) seat mounting rails and you'll be good to go.

I have an UltraSheild Aluminum seat mounted on Hardbar rails. I think it's comfortable, and with a back brace it is very, very, very sturdy.

I love my PRO2000 Sparco seat...commute and compete.
Which replaced a Forza...

The seat and cover together were about $335. I have mine mount rigid mounted with Hardbar mounts.

Do your stock seat belts work with those seats?

NO - Even if there was the buckle by the tunnel you sit so deep in the seat the stock belts would not do any good.
