I have a question and looking for a response wih facts if you guys have it. Is it better to run a 4 point all properly mouinted with stock seat/rollbar or the same with a 6 point option and stock seat. Are you hurting yourself by mounting it not ideally or is some anti-submarine better than none?

You can't safely use a racing harness and the stock seats. It's really as simple as that. You need a racing seat designed to be used with harnesses.

Is it better to be eaten by rats or to be eaten by wolves? NEITHER of your options are acceptible. It is not safe to use harnesses with the stock seats. Period.
