what's your jetting like? Has it been jetted for the pipes? Could be a bit rich or lean, either could cause popping.

Maybe ignition is taking place within the hot header due to the pair system, valve orverlap and heat. Ditch the pair and set the tps to 500 ohms, sync the carbs and install 'new' float valves cuz old ones leak.
