You're sure you know what knock sounds like?
If its only load based, that would nearly rule out p2v contact.
Sounds to me like the culprit is preignition. Try new bkr7e spark plugs and try rotating the dizzy towards the front of the vehicle. If the problem is alleviated or diminishes, its knock.

I though knock sounded like bees in a can but I apear wrong. Well give some fresh gas and new plugs and retard the timing and see what happens. All other suggestions are welcome
