Tune it up. New spark plugs if they are over 50,000 miles old.
Backfiring is typically a symptom that occurs with a gasoline engine that has spark plug wires crossed, spark cross firing inside the distributor cap in dust or condensation or an over lean condition.
If it runs smoothly when normal cruise it wouldn't be crossed wires so that leaves an over lean condition or cross firing in the distributor cap as the most likely causes. So check the inside of the distributor cap for moisture, dust etc and clean it if you find it.
Next, to check for over lean on acceleration the most likely is partially plugged fuel filter so renew it. Next step is to clean the fuel injector (s) with the good breed of fuel injector cleaner that you add to the fuel.
theres no distributor and the firing order for your 3.8 is 1-6-5-4-3-2-the following link shows the coil pack Buick General Motor 3800 V6 Engine Firing Order DIS IDI ignition timing

Spark plug wire location on coil pack:
.
Closest to the back of the car, left to right: 1 - 5 - 3.
Closest to the front of the car, left to right: 4 - 2 - 6.

It may be your Catalytic Converter. If it is possible to remove it & then start the vehicle. You'll know if its clogged & needs replaced (I wouldn't reccomend driving it w/o the cat though) I hope this helps =)
Take the Ignition Control Module and have it tested at Auto Zone or Oreillys. If it tests ok, buy a tube of dielectric grease and coat the back of the module and reinstall it. Sometimes that will take care of it. If it still isn't firing right, then it could be the Crankshaft Position Sensor. The new ICM would cost around $90. Not sure about the CPS. Myself, I would go ahead and replace the ICM, even though the old one tested positive. Good luck. I hope this helps.
check the heat range of the plugs you are using ,also try the bosch 3 electrode plugs and if they still gum up then renew the piston rings and the valve guide seals
350 Chevy engine in what? 1990 Corvette? Who built it, did you?
Sounds as though you have plug wires wrong. Firing order is 1-8-4-3-6-5-7-2
Distributor Ignition System: Distributor rotates Clockwise. (Rotor) Find Number 1 tower on distributor cap, go Clockwise with Firing Order.
Distributorless Ignition System: VIEWING the engine from the Front of the car.
Spark plug wire connections along the back, starting from Left side going to Right side; 2-3-7-4
Spark plug wire connection towards the Front of the engine; 6-1-5-8
(To guess I would say you have 5 and 7 wires switched)
Left side cylinder order is 1-3-5-7, going from front to back. Drivers side is Left side. Right side cylinder order is 2-4-6-8, going from front to back.
I think either the boots are not properly snapped onto the plugs or the wires weren't put back on correctly. In other words the firing order isn't correct.
It sounds as though the distributor is giving up the ghost.
Can you hear any sparking inside the distributor? If so then the cap is tracked to earth and needs replacing. If you're not sure then remove the cap and look for any fine black lines which lead from the plug terminals to the base of the cap or to another terminal. These are conductive tracks and they drain away the current which creates the spark, so weakening the spark.
Is the rotor in good condition? If not then renew it.
