My boat ( the blue one ) magic dragon back in the day before I was born.
Faggarts motor builder and tuner was Jerry Dorman who he paid to be at every race. Dorman's combo was always a "510 GMC" as he called it. Always ran Injectors and zoomies.
Dorman built motors for the Offixio (sp?) flat back east and also for Chester Montgomery out of Texas who ran 140 in his flat...back in the day.
Note the cast iron heads on Faggart's deal. Many rumors about those including that Faggart had a relative who worked for GM and those castings were "different".
Only Dorman knew for sure.
Jim Lange did a lot of bottom work to make those rides so free.
Just some history of the era.
I beleive Dion " Kal Koncepts" told me that his brother Chris Kurtis owns Teds red flat and the tan Texan .
The yellow boat was a Hondo, Gary Loftin in "Nurvgas". That was an really good boat and was later raced in SDBA by a friend of mine, Larry Skidmore. In 1977 Larry crashed that boat at an SDBA race in Tulsa when an ear came off the prop at 121 MPH. The boat was destroyed.
