Correct, no shelf. Might be a 302 thing.

I believe that's the "good" exhaust that came on the higher output engines.

The manifolds are rebranded Gil's labeled Kaama on the 425s.

The P-1000 exhaust, and the breathers on the valve covers would indicate, they are the 425's stage-2 motors. Which means they had a good three angle valve job, and probably dynoed around 440HP.
