Default 91 fullsize blazer backfiring problem

My 91 fullsize blazer just got new head gaskets but when started up it backfires like pop corn popping after a few minutes it will stop and truck runs fine any idea why it's popping

It sounds like your timing may be too far advanced for cold start up. What was the timing set to after the head gasket replacement?
