Hey Chevys ls v6 puts down 300hp might not be a bad idea. Moving the firewall want be hard cause its the only metal left on my mad that ain't rusted. Ill be cutting it loose anyhow lol.
Actually it shows the flip seat touches when front seat is in back position with 4.5 inches of adjustment. So if I can live with just moving it back 4 inches the flip seat should still work by adjust seat to fwd position. Means my wife will be driving I can live with that compromise.
Curious are there other nomad manuals available on line. I still have much to learn.
Thanks again
Rocky
As it turns out looks like 4 inches is not near enough. I have my current hot rod set back 6 inches and I fit real nice in it with lots of leg room. When I compared the nomad to it looks like I need to move the seat back at least 8 to 10 inches from its most aft position. Problem is I can't even crawl in the back seat now with the stock seat in the aft position. So the plan is to incorporate some new seat tracks that will have more travel so I can have my cake and eat it too so to speak. So I ordered these 12 inch travel seat rails from hotrodhq and they were suppose to be for a bench. Either I'm not seeing something or these are design for a bucket seat or a RH drive car. The instructions sent are a joke to say the least.It looks like I'm going to have to cut the handle off of one and weld it on the other to make it LH. I'm not sure yet how I will incorporate these and integrate to the original bench seat. I'm open to ideas at this point.

Success!!! With a few mods & a little fab work to the generic slides the split bench now has 12 inches of travel from front to back. Plenty of leg room now and I can still crawl in the back win win. The seat is in touched except I need to move the shells up 1/2 inch in front to clear tracks.
