I've asked this question before when I was still running my 88 speed density efi with some bolt ons. I since switched to mass air with a A9L & a piggy back FMS extender & had no more backfire/popping. I've since went with more heads/cam/intake & now running into the same popping/backfire noise on cold throttle loads. You hit the throttle & it momentarily popps/backfires & then takes off. It sounds like it's popping out the intake plenom.  Has any one had this same symtom or is this a common problem with cooler temp operation. It seems to be gone on hot days. Any suggestion or opinion would be appreciated.
