What rockers? Pushrods? Who measured for proper geometry when setting up the valvetrain? Need more info.

Sounds to me like it's pinging at part throttle. Have you scanned it? Any KR?

Power output and tune at WOT has no bearing on part throttle tune. Unless it was tuned on an eddy current dyno or tuned on the road, I highly doubt the part throttle tune is correct. This could result in pinging at part throttle. It would sound kind of like marbles in a can shaken up. Have you scanned it while driving? Any KR?
