Mike, you may find the wrap around style of the standard PVP seat to hold you in better. I believe P1 makes an all Carbon replica that saves a bunch of weight. I like the Tillet seat but have one complaint. The headrest always needs padding added to support your head which in turn usually makes it ugly and of course adds weight to the light seat. The curvature of the PVP seat makes for a more natural driving position. Both seats are for a layed down driving position, which being a bigger driver you would definitely want.

Charlie, anything can be done for a price:) Buy a medium and a small, sandwich them together with a 0.5" gap.....Fill with lead shot then fiberglass together. Now you have your required LEAD SLED

Charlie, I think two seats covering the lead might be more econimical than trying to pay the grocery bill to bulk up Ted

P1 Performance Carbon Fiber copy. Contact Pat @ (714) 516-1600. I have purchased many parts from both people and have found good service either way. Good luck.
