General Tech Carbureted TR7 backfiring

Not that I don't enjoy frightening my neighbors to death with gunshot-like sounds, but my two-carb (Stromberg) TR7 backfires frequently after shutting it off. My plugs and plug wires are newer, and I recently timed my distributor with a timing light, so the engine runs very well. I'd appreciate words of wisdom here.
