I've got a set of '61 Buick power buckets that I attempted to put in my '60 Bonneville and they definitely will not fit, too tall as you experienced. The tracks are too tall since the floor pans are different on the '59/'60 vs '61 up. however they do fit perfectly in my '61 Catalina. Plus power buckets were not available on the Pontiac versions of the hardbacks. You could make some custom mounts but I'd bet the power motor would no longer fit once you lowered the seat down.
