Jerry, great looking car! Love the color http://www.usa7s.com/aspnetforum/images/emoticons/biggrin5.gif   How wide is the car to fit two race seats? Don't think I could do that in my Caterham. Tom

Yes,it is wider than a standard Caterham, and is needed for my posterior width.

The race seats are Ultrashield drag seats, 20 degree layback model, one 18" wide, and one 16' wide.( the drivetrain is offset to give the driver more room) It's 44" across the cockpit outsides.

The color is 2004 Mustang Screaming Yellow

Thanks for the kind comments. I like red and yellow, it's my "Ronald McDonald" car.



I am not sure of the muffler brand, and yes I am running a catalytic converter. That way I could hook up the standard Honda front and rear O2 sensors, as I am running a stock Honda S2000 computer. Basically the engine/ecu/transmission are completely stock Honda S2000. No tuning, no adjusting, no wrenching, no hassles, just lots of reliable horsepower.



Here's a shot of the cat and headers as I was wiring the O2 sensors

When you say 18" driver's seat width, is that the ID "butt width" between the bolsters, or the overall OD of the seat? Do you know how that compares to the Cat SV dimension?

Spotcheck:



I measured the seat area. The passenger side measures

16 3/4 between the tunnel and side of the car, and the metal portion of the seat is 15 1/2 inside between the seat sides. There is about 1/4 inch of padding on the seat sides. The sides are rather high, and provide a lot of side support.



The driver's side is 18 3/4 and 17 1/2 respectively.



The engine and drive train are offset toward the passenger side to provide more room for the driver.



As mentioned before they are 20 degree layback "drag" model seats from Ultrashield. I added about 1" of foam under the seat and on the back, with a little more for a lumbar support, and they are pretty comfortable.

Here's some seat pics.
