backfire through intake question

My Dak is starting to backfire through intake occasionally. Say, once or
twice a week and I drive about 400 miles a week.
It usually occurs when accelerating hard in second then I shift into third.
Right after I get into third and mash the gas it will pop once or twice. I
will back off then it's OK. Thats the only situation where it occurs.

Any suggestions as where to look first ?

I'm using the throttle body off of my old 318 on a used 360 on a Mopar SP
intake and the idle has never been real smooth. The scanner says it's a
little lean at idle but OK at higher rpms. The throttle linkage from the
360 tb is different than the 318 tb.
