I've seen vibrations cause false knock before. You need to be careful of that.
The engine is a system in itself. You have changed a lot about it, so I doubt the balance shafts are going to work as intended. It maybe as simple as running them out of phase to match the changes all the way to possibly balancing them as well. They could need to be lightened or have weight added to them.
I'm sure something like this would give you some answers, if you are willing to throw some money into finding a solution:

If not, there is always just deleting them.

I like the idea of trying to alter the phasing a bit and see what kind of results I see.
