Backfiring -> either one or more plugs aren't firing properly and/or you're 
running rich!
But, IIRC, you said the OSHIT had tuned your carbs. Yes?

Two thoughts...
What is the voltage at the coil when the engine is running?
And,
Does it still backfire/surge if you run a jumper lead from the battery to the 
coil??
Have you replaced the coil? -- maybe going intermittent when it gets hot, BTDT!

and backfiring visibly in the dark. At least the Statie prolly thought so as we 
drove down I-195 at 40 miles an hour in the dark.
