What's the part number of the seat you bought, JS?

Also, will the brackets work with Part No. 41900 or 41800?

Finally, have you installed a back brace from the back of the seat to the roll bar behind you? If so, does it need to go just below the opening for the shoulder straps or just above the opening?

Thanks,

Derrick

 

Do know on the seat,we used a 0800 and the 0900 series so far.
Yes about the bracket for the bar---->(Total weight with bar tabs 2.2lb)

 

Did you attach the back brace above the shoulder strap opening or below the opening?

 

Its mounted below the shoulder harness opening....

I wanna clear up the seat information as to what seat can be used.
Walt tells me he can use just about any Kirkey but u will need to provide him with the seat if you want brackets made for it unless its a flat bottom seat,then there will be no problem as in the pictures I've put up.

 

I have two Kirkey Prostreet seats going in next month with a custom 8pt.

What measurements do you need? Just the seat dimensions? Or does he need to know where It will be mounted in the car. These look nice n if the price is right I will bite

Thanks!

hey joel...what thickness aluminum did he use? Is there an NHRA rule on it? I don't have my rulebook yet (its on order)

 

Email Walt at breadmanwalt@aol.com for any info or questions...I think the alum. brackets are 3/16ths....

 

Hey guys, FYI here's what Walt says:

"Hi , the brackets in the pics work with the 9000, 16000, 19000 and 20000
seats. To do any other seat i would need to have the seat first."

So, go here http://www.kirkeyracing.com/ and click on Seats, then All Seats and you will see those series listed.

Hope this helps!

 

There ya go.....

 

Do you know how short he can make those things? I have a Sparco Evo, and I have it almost sitting on the floor in the back, and I'd like to get it even shorter....shorter is better for roll center and helmet clearance. Those brackets look damn good!

 

FYI...

I just bought a pair of these and installed them last night. They are awesome. I had mine built 4" off the floor front and back and the seat sits lower than stock. My new Kirkey seat is much more comfortable than my Corbeau Forza was. Plenty of helmet clearance and the back of the seat is about 4" away from the bar behind the seat. I did screw up a bit on the back brace though. I drilled the holes in the back of the seat just a tad to low and now the back brace sits about 1/4" too low from the bar. The seat is solid and won't budge at all. I think the seat braces are worth the money.

 

Have a 93 firebird would i have to do anything other than mount the mounts to the floor and the seats in .I really like the 20000 seats.But dont have a roll bar or cage in the car . And them mounts look good

 

Wait til u see the air box he is making me for my GTO...
His seat brackets are IMO nicer than anything I've seen on this site.....

breadmanwalt@aol.com is the man

 

hmmmmmm

 

Man , those look a little too low for me
