Sparco r100 seats too tall to fit?

Talked to a Sparco rep. He is very sure that the r100 seat is too tall to fit in the 350 and, thus, probably the 370, without modifying their seat

"Very sure" or "100% sure"? I ask because according to the Sparco website, the R100s are 860mm/33.85" tall. My old seats (Cipher Vipers) are 38.5" tall and fit in the car fine with rails/brackets, and Hotrodz's EVO II-US's are 886mm/35.1" tall.

You might want to find a rep with more experience with this chassis unless that specific seat has some hidden inches not listed on the website.
