Hi Ken,

The angles and placement of the seat changes from kart to kart.

What you should do:
Take some chalk and draw out the plan of the kart on the concrete ground. 
Draw the position of the wheels and engine on the ground. Then take your 
seat and place it onto of the chalk drawing on the ground. You can sit it 
the seat and adjust the seat so you can reach the front of the kart. This 
way you work out the correct angles and degrees for the seat for your 
kart.

You can see a sample plan of a kart at:

and

All the information I have on karts and their setup/design is on the 
www.kartbuilding.net website.

Best of luck,
-steve
