You mean via the intake manifold? Would that be between the head and the
manifold, or between the manifold and the carb?

How would I test for that? Or should I just put metal gaskets in and see if
it helps?

The popping, BTW, is only when I pretty much floor the accelerator, and it
doesn't affect the ride at all, in other words, the car doesn't slow down or
lose power. It does it a lot less since I reset the timing, so some of
yesterday's pyrotechnics could have been backfires caused by bad timing.
