Thank you. That answers some questions for me. Shown in this vid is the new oil cooler (I didn’t recall when that was changed, original unit was chrome) but original ignition box (current box is rectangle Not square and a bit bigger). It was a busy time of my life, and we didn’t use the boat much near the end. I don’t recall the year my Dad sold it.....

It had a few engine configurations, 427 Chevy and 427 Ford Cammer...
So,, ran into Jerry Gilbreath today here in Parker, then sent a message to Bruce Izatt Jr. Bruce remarked that Stenton's "Black and Blue" was a short deck boat, and they pulled the engine, put it in Butch Peterson's Kini Popo for the 1969 9 Hour. Bruce said he and Stenton drove it, used Stenton's #93, and that in that photo in the ad, he (Bruce Izatt Jr.)is the one driving

Got some more pics tonight. It’s hard to post these with it so dirty, I really need to get in it and dust, polish and clean.
