Certainly easier then modifying a stock one yourself.

Well will have to add that as of looking at the recent 67 GT350 at auction mentioned on this site I now have seen one with a Hone-O- Drive.  Also in doing a search of my  picture collection did find one installed on a 67 GT500 and another on a 68 Shelby

Sure others are familiar of the ad/ads offering Hone-O-drives on 66 GT350's. There are a number of those out there. Also have seen them on 69-70 Boss's. The one I have was reported to have come out of a large HD Ford truck.

As mentioned in the other thread - two versions- One that replaced the pinion gear and retainer on the front of the Ford 9" 3rd member and the other was attached between two short driveshafts and mounted to the floor or frame on non-Ford applications

I think the latch goes in the center of the car. Easier for right handed driver to fasten it.

Had a friend come over who knows Mustangs and said the equalizer bar is bent and the lower connection rod does not engage straight but off at an angle.  It is also touching the header very closely.  I am inclined to get a fortified bar this time around and he will install or I will install under his watchful eyes.

Ray Brown lap belts.  The flat clip next to the door with the fastening latch side hooked to the driveshaft tunnel or vice versa?  I have seen it both ways. 

The Hone - O -Drives were a popular addition to motor homes in the late 1960's - early 1970's. Motion performance out of Long Island, NY offered them as an option in the 1971 Corvette. I think that was the first time anyone offered that on a car.

Never seen anything related to Hon-O-Drives being an option. Of course dealers would do just about anything that would make a sale if it didn't alter emissions or warranty sorts of things. Of course this would not be considered factory in any way.

Don't recall ever seeing one installed on a 67 - 70 Shelby.  Must have been really unpopular with new buyers and other owners after them

Drew, what don't you like about the DC needle and seat? I have had better luck with it on the race car motor. The fuel flow on the gauge is much more steady between full throttle and throttle cut.   

A quick search here brought up discussions about them:
