I know this doesn't exactly answer your question, but I have 06 seats in my '65 GTO with working power/lumbar. By the time you make brackets to keep the power tracks, height is definitely a problem. I've only got a few inches between the headliner and the headrest with the seat in the lowest position. It's comfortable for me, but I'm only 5'8". Pretty sure there is less headroom in a 2nd gen.

I'm pretty sure you're going to have trouble, probably more so with width than height. But I imagine you'll need to ditch the power tracks to get them in there, height-wise.

I used a pair of GTO seats in in a Camaro we built. We had to loose the power sliders and go with manual tracks (from Sparco, there universal tracks). It worked out really well with minor mods, the seats fit great...

The upholsterer of this car also lopped the headrest off to address the issue others are describing. We did not want to see a foot of seat above the windowline. Not cool!
