Backfiring.
I had an XL500 not so long ago, after reboring and rebuilding I had the same problem. Sounded a bit like a shotgun going off. We diagnosed it in the end as a sticking valve because it was an intermittent fault. Head off, new valves, back together and problem solved.
Possibly the same problem for you?
Good luck
