Technically it’s “after fire”. Back fire is forward of the intake manifold (or carb). After fire is post combustion, when fuel doesn’t burn in the cylinder and ignites in the exhaust manifold due to heat/compression.

Luke must be a cool young dude, b/c he’s the only youngster that gets repeated invites to the FF & new shop. isn’t there a Fresh TX Speed 427 somewhere?..or is that what Donnie got?
