you might try sitting on a small bean bag, shuffle until it's
comfortable then have a look at the shape you need. The trick is to
achieve even seat pressure on the body. Racing cars fill a bag with pour
in place foam and let it set round the body. Has to be the right amount
though.
The problem is sometimes length of upper torso. Body length varies a
lot, You can increase space by moving the buttocks forwards, which will
raise the knees.
I did modify one Europa for a guy who was 77in tall.
