Default check those gaskets again

Check those header to head gaskets again. Not going to tell you that this is the answer, but I had the exact same symptoms with my 428 and cured the entire situation, flames and all, with the header gasket change.
I couldn't find a good set of header gaskets without the bolt holes on the side until I spoke with Bob at ERA. Was able to get a solid set.
After instillation, no backfire - no flames

I do kinda miss those flames from time to time....
