Paul, Holcomb Motorsports makes a seat bracket that bolts in, and I just used spacers to get the height I want. Took me about an hour to install both kirkey seats, just bolt in the brackets, set the height, drill the holes in the kirkey seat and go with it. Yes I am running an alternator, I'm using the Moroso alternator bracket it works well.

Mootang, I have the Kirkey Econo Drag seats, they come in 15 or 17" hip width.
As GMKillr said they are light...mine with the seat covers weigh 11lbs, and I think the seat bracket weighs about 8lbs. Man I can't wait to weigh this car.

Also guys if you ever decide to invest in the 94/95 Meziere pump...do it! Albeit expensive it is well worth it. After running the car for awhile at temp or racing with the car around 185degrees...shut it down turn on the low speed fan and water pump in less than 5 minutes the water temp is down to 110 degrees!!!

Troy, I got a Rigid Race Cars aluminum seat bracket that only weighs 3lbs. I bought it from them direct, they are great guys to deal with. I thought the the econo-drags were in the 16lb. range?? Thats why I went w/ the pro-drag cause it was a few lbs. lighter. I could be wrong though. I'll second that on the Meziere pump!! Great piece, very high quality, and the ability to run it w/ the motor off is killer!! The cheapest I found them was Summit. Is your cage chromemoley? If so what was the total weight of it?

No its mild steel, I couldn't tell you the exact weight on it. But I got the 6pt installed at the same time I did the front k-member back in 2001. I seem to remember the car staying the same weight so the roll bar and k-member setup basically cancelled each other out...so based on that 60-70lbs.
