Homologation requirements were wonderful things.

Homologation only means that a certain number of production cars need to meet the same criteria, not that they need to be street legal. It applies to race-only models as well as production classes. These 917s were (barely) made road-legal afterwards.

But it means that we do have 917 road cars.

I mean you could probably put two flat 6's together? I imagine that would exceed the cost of the car figuring it all out, but hey, perfection isn’t easy.

No, the 917 was not part of a series that required street-legal production runs. What you have is two street-legal cars because someone decided to take two pure race cars and make street cars out of them. It had nothing to do with homologation requirements.
The 959 and 288GTO, etc. were part of Group B, which required manufacturers to make at least 200 street legal production cars.
Current F1 cars also have homologation rules, but that has nothing to do with making a street car. ‘Homologation’ just means they all need to be the same. It applies to cars, racetracks, engines, etc.
