Front seats

After reading the rule book what does NHRA mean by full size aftermarket seats? I understand running oem front seats are a better option because of weight but I never had the oem seat so I'm trying to understand if my upholstered jaz high back buckets will work.

Nova…The rule basically means both seats HAVE TO BE IDENTICAL (same) EG: If drivers seat is say a Kirkey Part Number 41900 then the Right Side (passenger) will have to be a 41900. Some cars have a High Back for driver and a Low Back on the right side. I heard that a smaller size of the seat will be checked also. EG: Kirkey 41900 Drivers and 41700 Right Side (2" narrower) WON'T WORK . Hopes this answers your question…Maurice.
