Re: Seat Belts Install for Slow Stocker
I used to have a set of Y shoulder RCI belts that were mounted to the floor behind me when I was younger. A seasoned racer spelled out to me why it was a bad idea. With my low back bucket seats, if the belts did come into play they would drive me down in the seat and likely compress my spine. Without a cage, if they were tight enough to keep me upright and the car ended up shiny side down, they would keep me from rolling to the side while the roof came down and.... compress my spine. He explained that is why the rule book only allows the shoulder belt to be mounted a short distance (4 or 5 inches I believe) below the drivers shoulders. I run a 3 inch, very expired belt mounted in the factory location, just in case I do end up inverted so I don't have to worry about trying to push a tiny OEM button while hanging.

The 67 did come with a OEM shoulder harness option so the fastener could be under your headliner, I use the OEM locations on my comet with expired belts, I would highly recommend a shoulder harness..
