Last gear drive I had on a vehicle is sitting in my tool box, it lasted about two weeks in my dd. I'm using it as a design to change one of my tattoos to look like one.

I don't know if it would work on the newer FI engines
but I have had gear drives on 3 different cars
And have had no issues But these were late 60s
Early 70s engines and really only driven on Fri/sat nights
I would NOT put a gear drive in a everyday driver

I like the sound of gear drives, on other peoples cars. I thought about running one on my latest build, thought about it fall of about 2 minutes, then went with a double roller Cloyes set, and never regretted it.
There are two tools needed, duct tape and WD40. If it moves and shouldn't, use the duct tape. If it doesn't move and should, use the WD 40.
