Why would you need to move your seat forward 2-3"? The LSx Doesn't Portrude into the cabin at all. Yes you'll need to make a new front cover if you ended up hacking it up to make room, which isn't hard at all if you know how to beat on some thin sheet metal with a hammer lol... Keeping a few inches of space between your newly created firewall/front cover, you should still have more than enough room to reinstall the stock carpet mat and keep it looking stock. Just like mostly everyone has done.
Then you add on the Coolant Plate and Hoses, add something thats like half an inch thick to act as a spacer between the engine and your newly created firewall, start hammering down to get shape and eventually you'll have a nice shape and not lose any cabin space.
Might even be able to Rhino Line it thick enough to act as some sound deadener.
