Wow, lots of good info here. Thank you. I will get you the pictures that you requested as soon as possible. Life is currently interfering with any plans I have to work on the car, but I should be able to get back to it by early next week. Thank you again for taking the time to answer my...

The distributor does not have a vacuum advance. I don't know what a mopar 4/5 wire box is, but I don't think I have one. It seems to be a straight forward ignition system, coil, solid state distributor, wires, etc. It does not idle very smoothly, and now I know why. Do you think the lifter on...

@slant6billy The inscription on the carb is hard to read but it says 1405 or 1406. Hard to tell.

Well, I found my oil leak. Then while doing the driver side, I found this pushrod shoved through the rocker arm. I ordered a new rocker arm and a new pushrod. Any ideas what would cause this to happen? Should I be concerned about anything else?

I was told by the previous owner that the carb, intake, and heads were all Edelbrock. The heads say Performer RPM, I haven't looked for any markings on the intake. I plan to go over it more thoroughly tomorrow when I do the valve cover gaskets. Thanks for your input, and I too wish I was closer...

Hahaha sorry! Thanks for that info also. The breather caps are not twist in, they just push in there.

Thanks for the info and the link.

Thanks for the heads up. Any pics you could give me would really help me understand how this thing is supposed to go together. I really have no clue which carb it is, but if you know of a way for me to find out, I'll go take a look.

Thanks for the reply. I'm not concerned about having the car factory correct, but would like to have a nice, reliable daily driver.

If I'm missing anything, or you guys need to see things from a different angle, let me know and I'll try to get a better shot. Thanks.

Hey everybody, So I bought this 1985 5th Ave. the other day. It seems to be in decent shape overall, with a few exceptions. I finally got the time to give it a once-over and I'm seeing some issues. There seems to be a few aftermarket parts along with some shady wrenching. Would any of you more...

Thank you.

Hello all, I recently picked up an '85 Fifth Ave. It's not in perfect shape, but in reasonable condition for its age. The body is straight and the interior is mostly complete, if a bit dirty. I have nicknamed it Valdez due to the massive oil leak it currently has. I haven't had the chance to...
