Place on the grill, close the cover and let roast for 30 to 40 minutes, until garlic is soft. Squeeze roasted cloves into a bowl. Heat the side burner. Place the orange juice and 1/2 of the reserved shrimp shells in a medium saucepan, bring to a boil and cook orange juice is reduced to 3/4 cup. Strain the reduced orange juice into a blender and add the roasted garlic and olive oil and blend until smooth. Let cool completely. Place shrimp in a large baking dish, pour the orange/garlic marinade over and toss to coat. Let marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour. Thread 5 shrimp onto each skewer, season with salt and pepper to taste and grill for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, or until just cooked through. Remove to a platter and sprinkle with chopped parsley and basil.
