I have 80-81 seats in my 73.  They bolt straight in.  I'm not sure which seat rails I have though.

I believe the seat rails changed in the mid seventies
the difference being the change in floor pan profile

My 79 rails  have a higher mount on the rear compared to   my 70 model
a 75 I have rails  looks  similar to the 79
