The Fastrac turbopump is of entirely different design and not related to the Spacex design. Spacex's design was a clean sheet design at the same subcontractor that made both turbopumps. Here is evidence to that effect and the section on legacy was deleted.

Compare designs specifically flange location, housing shape and inducer design for the LOX end. http://www.gkllc.com/lit/gk-authored/AIAA-2007-5537_Hydrogen_Peroxide-Optimal_for_Turbomachinery_and_Power_Applications.pdf http://www.barber-nichols.com/images/merlin_turbopump.jpg
