hey ya'll. Got a '50 sedan. 216 roch 1 bbl.
exhaust was toast so I cut it out and put 2/12
inch pipe all the way back with a cherry bomb.
I get a little burble about every 1 1/2 second. Timing problem or lack of back pressure???? Am I going to smoke my valve with such silliness??? Thanks, justin

Misfires are very common on point fired ignitions. Switch to electronic (if you haven't already) and if everything is in good shape, the misfire will go away. It'll sound smoother at idle, and get better mileage too.
