The seat that's in it is for a "husky" fella, I'm putting in a 17" seat that I bought from Patrick that should give me some space between the chainguard and the belt opening in the seat; if I get a tube welded in parallel to the outer frame rail just inboard of the guard (which is what looks like was there originally), we should be "gooda go" (in my best Aussie accent)...
That picture pretty much shows my setup perfectly. If you notice in the picture and when you see my car, my seat is installed slightly on an angle from side to side as does the yellow car appears to be as well. I did it mainly so when I'm hooked in I don't feel like I'm offset to the right. Makes me feel centered in the car. (Just a personal thing I guess..lol) my seat is a 15" so room isn't an issue, especially with the way the seat is angled. It gives about 1-1.5" of room for the belt to wrap the left side bar as shown in the yellow car picture. That 17" seat had room in my chassis as well with the slight angled mounting.
