height wise, they seat about the same as the original bench, but the seat back comes up pretty high.

68 Short Step... awesome build.. truck looks amazing.

A couple of questions if you don't mind...
1. What wiring harness did you use in the truck and for the motor? was it stand alone or modified factory?
2. what mufflers did you use?
3. what size exhaust did you use

Thanks

Re: my official 68 shortstep ls1 thread (lots of pics)

those look verry nice , i myself wouldve put the tweeters higher up , like in the windowframe though
there kindah short range and drown out when sumting like a leg gets in the way
