Backfire usally means timing or if extremily lean detonation. I'd get it tuned sooner rather than later before any engine damage.

Re: Brake servo install,

i put in a brake servo and had exact same problem, it will be in the way there so my advice would be make up some new pipes and move the bias valve to somewhere out of the way like on the inner wing..

Re: SCHUTZ

yea i used about 5 litres of the stuff on my estate..
its good stuff imo , forms a rubbery layer which can withstand stones and stuff and has some some sort of waxoil/underseal mixed in it too..
make sure you use a compressor with the proper spray gun ;)
