Default To those with sparco torino's

is height an issue to sit properly in the seats? i've read that bigger ppl can fit comfortably into the seats, but i'm only 5'7, 170lbs.

also, was the installation difficult with regards to the seat rails?

I'm 5' 11" and fit fine. Smaller guys who have checked it out didn't seem to mind it at all. I think you'll be fine.

Installation was completely straightforward. I used the Sparco sliders and "wedge" bottom bracket from OG Racing. I'm currently looking to either sell the seat or get a Vision bracket for it - the wedge bracket sits up too high in the R. I also had to trim it to fit properly on the lowest height setting.

Also, you might see interference between the bracket (where it attaches to the sliders) and the rear inside seat bracket bolt. I actually had to undo the inside slider bracket from the base to drive that bolt in. Pissed me off.

PS - if anyone has a Vision bottom bracket for sale, please let me know.
