Do Stockers need correct year seats?

The rule book says "MUST HAVE FULL FACTORY TYPE UPHOLSTERY" it say nothing about being correct per year and make. This is why I called NHRA and asked. I was told that my assumption was correct but NHRA prefers to have seats of the same manufacturer. We are gong to build another Monte Carlo and it currently has a bench seat. I was concerned for safety reasons and due to my size. I think I can find alot more to complain about than a guy having a different seat in his car. So long as I make weight who cares what seat I or anyone else is running as long is is factory type. If they have the same option to run a different seat which according to NHRA they do, it is their option. If they choose not to do so and it gives me an advantage then so be it. Don't like it change it.
