Default Seats

I am looking to making some changes inside my 99T/A, with the addition of the 427 I now really need to go with a cage, and this adds the need for Race seats. I have 2 questions.
1. Is a race seat something you can sit in for a long drive (i.e. power tour) and does it fit a big person (I am 6'5" 250)
2. Can you buy rails that allow the seat to be mounted farther back? I am deleteing the back seats anyway when I add the cage and may have custom panels added to hide the N02 bottles where the existing back seats are.

Matt

I see plenty of people that run stock T/A seat that run the belts under the headrest on each side. The seats are optional.

Damn your a big boy, it's going to be a pain to get in and out of the cage even if you have the swing out bar.
