I don't mean to be blunt or dismissive, but the pressure in the veins/arteries has nothing to do with (a) the thickness/elasticity of the wall tissue, (b) the diameter of the arteries/veins, or (c) the number of (branches of) arteries/veins.
This can either be caused by a more prominent maxilla (upper jaw) or a retruded mandible (lower jaw further back than it should be). This causes a discrepancy in how all teeth contact, and can manifest as an increased overjet. An increased overjet can also be caused by a discrepancy in the number of teeth, or the length of the arch.
Unburnt air/fuel mixture passing through the exhaust and igniting also results in backfiring. This is usually caused by a temporary loss of ignition or rich idle mixtures in combination with exhaust air leaks. If there is only moderate backfiring it may be because the exhaust valves are leaking or the tappets are tight.
