Not Ranked
On my SPF, in which i have many many drag runs and hundreds of road course laps, i have put now my third set of driver's belts, as they fray from the knurled slider adjustments. I have the "latch and link" type, Simpson, with the over the shoulder Y harness bolted with an ARP bolt thru the frame, a few inches below my shoulder, then the "crotch strap" is bolted to a frame strap, and comes up right in front of the seat, and holds the lap belts down to where they are much more comfortable, and don't "ride up" on my hips.
I believe my set up, the standard SPF one, is proper, with the correct angles of tension, according to the Simpson catalogue and guide pictures. A full Simpson latch set is about a hundred bucks per side. With hardware for mounting, if you need it.
I wear all of it, all the time. Over 50K miles so far. But i consider belts a wear out and replace item on my car.
I key the ignition, flick on the Accusump, and while it is pressurizing the engine, i take my time to get all settled in.
