I tuned my carbs.
The car starts without effort now. It even idles at 950.
However, soon after I run it the heat and gas gauges drop as if they've lost 
power while the engine runs on.
If I drive the car it backfires a lot unless I am in full choke.

Question #1: Why the backfire?
Question #2: Why the dead gauges?
Question #3: Is the power loss and backfire related?

The car is an SV with strombergs.
