Default 1978 c3 seat/ bad back?

I have a 78 C3 but I also can't get handle the natural recline these seats have due to a bad back, is there a replacement seat I can get so I can adjust the seat or even have a lumbar cushion.
I have heard 2002 Camaro's and Firebird seats will fit the Corvettes, is this true?

Also is there a way to alter my current seat to eliminate the recline in the
seat? The seats are in pretty rough condition anyway so If I'm going to spend money to upgrade them ,I want a comfortable seat.
Thanks

I used 2005 Mustang seats, They fit nearly perfect. If I did not tell you where they came from. I dought you could guess. Both are power seats, with lumbar.
