Check with Warwick Harrison. There may be some extended Harrisons over that way. It is a real pain if you take all the time, effort and dollars to build a Cobra and then find that you can't spend more than 30 mins driving the thing, due to foot, knee, hip or back problems. The right combination of well designed, thin seats, low setting and extra leg room and pedal space is necessary for most of us over 6 feet (regardless of weight!).
I had only one problem with the Harrison, the accelerator pedal was at an uncomfortable angle initially. That was easily fixed by re-shaping the pedal lever. A bonus in the Harrison (and possibly others) is how the accelerator pedal is set into to side panel to make extra room for the clutch and brake pedals.
It is also good to go and see some builds as they are fitting seats and you can try different set ups. No matter how good the Cobra may look in the garage or how many HP it may have, you have to be comfortable driving it for quite a few hours. Otherwise you will end up selling it.
