sound like excessive fuel is the prob not timing.....

------------------
bought a wrecked(head on,bad)'84 Z28 rebuilt it in'92 parked it in
'93 and ordered a '93 Z28. Got tired of the 4th gen in '99 and sold it and begin swapping in '85 TPI converted to speed density. engine is all stock except for comp cam. body has '86 IROC nose peice,ground fx and IROC wheels/goodyear 245/50's. IMO this car looks and feels more "racey" than my '93 did. and I love driving it. BTW fuel injection is great I'll never go back to carbs.

BlackZ....I would have to say retarded. I say this because when I first started up the 305 TPI after modin the top half of the motor I had the distributor out of position in relationship to #1 cylinder. The timing was retarded and I had a couple good backfires through the intake....at one point I thought I had lost the MAF!

I had to turn the distributor counter-clockwise before I got things under control....hence it was running retarded(firing late). And oh yeah....almost forgot to mention that my Jet-Hot coated headers got bright orange while this was going on! LOL!!!!

I think he means afterfire (through the exhaust), not backfire. I'm having the same prob.

I get afterfiring under deceleration some times. I'm pretty sure it's due to advanced ignition timing, which is set at 10 BTDC (it should be 6). Because it does'nt afterfire all the time i figure i'll leave it that way, should'nt hurt the motor (unless i'm wrong).
Any other thoughts!!!!!!
