Thanks - I appreciate all of the suggestions
Sold my seats last week and thought I'd have at least 1 seat in yesterday, but thanks to Sparco's hair-brained ideas - I do not I ain't got no seats!!!
Sparco came out with the Evo 2 Plus seat; an Evo 2 (I thought/assumed)with a slightly longer/taller back side w/higher openings for the shoulder straps Silly Sparco took the Evo dimensions and elongated them for a taller driver - shouldn't they have called it the Evo Plus and not Evo 2 Plus Sparco said that maybe this summer they'll actuall keep the Evo 2 dimensions and elongate them and call it Evo XL Plus

Bummer... AMS made my EVO XL work, a little trim on the seat by the console and on the wing by the B pillar, fit's perfectly. Had to take the adjuster out, I am torso tall.
EVO XL will work with some work... sorry no photos

can any of the big & tall guys chime in here with what they bought??
I fit in the Evo 2 seat well; however, my torso is too long, and I completely block the openings for the shoulder straps I'm 6'4", 220lbs. and have a 36/37" waist.
I'm leaning towards the Cobra Suzuka GT's???

I just put a suzuka gt in my car. I'm a nearly identical 6'4" 215lb 36" waist and the seat is snug but not uncomfortably so. Sometimes the waist doesn't tell the whole story though and hip width can be more important (I don't have a tape measure free to measure mine). The shoulder strap openings are fine for my height.

If I may ask - how did you mount the seat?? I'm looking to get this seat in WAY low

I used alloy side mounts. The seat is pretty low and I have about an inch head clearance with helmet. I also have the seat pretty far back and will have an extra rear mount installed so that there isn't rearward flex. I am using a short splash hub with quick release, spacer, and a medium dish wheel. It fits my frame perfectly.

I just installed the Splash, w/quick release and the Sparco 375 wheel (about 35mm dish.

I believe I bought the 345 with 63mm dish and I added a spacer. The seat is reasonably far back and I still have good leverage on the wheel.
