You can get all scientific, but try it the readneck way 1st, put some blocks of wood or bricks on the floor sit the seat on top (don't drive the car this way) and see who it feels, yeehaw.

You have to take a lot of things into consideration- visibility, easy of entry/exit, proximity to shifter/pedals so spend some time mocking it up with the car at the stance it will end up with till you find the sweet spot.
