Seat belts properly in



Modified the dash a bit to get extra clearance. Still need to bend the shifter a bit more clearance.



also got the reserve light and fuel pump wired up, oil cooler in.

Sabelt is some sort of brand. I dunno they came with the frame and see ok. And yeah no fatties - its a reasonably tight fit but lots of leg room though.

Sabelt has an awesome name in the motorsport world. They make most of the Ferrari F1 team's gloves and shoes, and the seatbelts in Ferrari's F1 cars have been Sabelt for over a decade.

Are they only 4 point?  I wouldn't use anything other than at least 5 point, I like my internal organs.

Its a four point. Probably slightly better than a normal belt, not as good as a five but a five point belt is a real bear to put on in such a small car for non-track usage. Besides it is what I had.

initial_D - you are welcome to head down any time. I'm hoping to wrap this one up very soon.

I believe they are 4 point Sabelt because that's about the best you can do and still pass DOT.  I don't know if you can get a legal 5 or 6 point for the street, you couldn't a few years ago.
