Shelby Tri-Y long tube headers the pre 1970 ones if I remember correctly . I have them on my 1988 5.0 with a AOD I had to bend the pipes after they merged to clear the big AOD also kept burning the plug wire on cylinder 5 just cut the pipe at the flange and welded in two pieces to solve that problem. Also mine are off ebay there the same as the $500 one but only cost $130 shipped
