basically, even with a side mount, you cant go lower than OEM. OEM ones are nearly touching the floor, they are base mounted but keep in mind the rails and seats were designed together and the seat goes somewhat around the rails.

Any base mount seat needs some room to fit rails, and the seats goes on top. That adds quite some height. This is not an issue on most cars, but on S chassis, it is.

If you want cheap side mount rails, you can get buddyclubs super low mount.

But you still need to bash the trans tunnel, widen chassis mount holes to let the seat go between the rails and adapt the lock bar ( it is straight, you need to hammer it so it gets over front floor reinforcement) to get as low as possible.

And of course side mount seat.
