Cross-firing due to bad sparkplug wires (if so equipped), a bad distributor cap (if so equipped), too lean a mixture causing pre-ignition, vacuum leaks, too much spark-advance causing pre-ignition, overheating, insufficient octane in the fuel (if high-compression 350).

What causes a 1973 Pontiac 350 engine to backfire through the exhaust?
A large backfire is most likely caused by a bad spark plug or plug wire. Unburned air and fuel pumped into the exhaust will often be ignited by the other cylinders still burning exhaust gases. Also check your ignition timing, if it is late and you have a rich mixture you can get a backfire. An exhaust leak will let air enter the exhaust under deceleration and cause a "popping" sound.
