<div class="">Thanks everyone for the replies. I will inspect the pipe to manifold and manifold to head to see if anything is loose or any leaks apparent in the morning.</div>

<div class="">I actually went down a main jet 145 to 140 and that seemed like it helped some but didn't clear up the issue (which is going leaner; opposite of what Greg said). </div>

<div class="">It is missing and backfiring when I am full on the gas. I can prevent it by easing into the gas.</div>

<div class="">I did notice some gas at my air cleaner to velocity stack connection. I wonder if it is a float issue?</div>

<div class="">Don't know if my other email made it to you. Backfires on deceleration can be a lean condition. Have you checked your plugs? Maybe something got "adjusted" with the bump. <br class="">

<div class=""><span class="">Two races ago I went off track and bent my exhaust pipe enough to break the welded joint near the muffler. In the interest of time, I cut the exhaust at the muffler and secured the pipe to the frame.</span><br class="">
<span class=""></span><br class="">
<span class="">At the last race, I noticed the car would backfire at deceleration which I am not surprised but I also noticed a stutter around 4-5k rpm.
</span><br class="">
<span class=""></span><br class="">
<span class="">At NOLA this weekend it is more pronounced and comes in when shifting hard from 3rd to 4th. After 5k, it clears up and pulls normally.</span><br class="">
<span class=""></span><br class="">
<span class="">It doesn't seem to be affected by turns and more related to full throttle vs easing into the gas.</span><br class="">
<span class=""></span><br class="">
<span class="">Backpressure from the loss of muffler or unrelated issues?</span><br class="">
