Default Holley Carb Identification.

Whilst working on my new 75 Vette I was having a look at my air cleaner and carb setup.

The carb is a Holley but apart from the name, I couldnt find any model or number stamps on it. Where should this information be allowing me to identify the carb unit?

Also, It looks as though the Exhaus headers have the name MR.G then the name is too faint to make out. Any ideas what make they may be, again so I can Identify them.

Im just lloking now to see what modifications have been done so I can work out rough power and torque estimates.

Thanks.

MR. Gasket is what I would expect to see on the headers.

The carb number on a Holley is stamped into the forward driver's side of the choke tower wall. Often, the number is preceeded by the word "LIST". Other times it's just the number, such as "4773-1"

As for the headers, Mr Gasket looks about right but I can only find gaskets made by them and no actual headers, any advice where to look?
