Lifter tapping noise !

I know these engines do not have lifters but that is what it sounds like.
I have read a lot of the searches on the dreaded Tick and they don't compare with what mine is doing.
It is quiet at start up and idle but when I take off in first through fifth at around 2 k and climbing under load I hear it.In all gears if I stop climbing and stay at a particular rpm its gone but if I get back on it to go, there it is. Kinda like the old lifter tap when the timing was off. I took it to the muffler shop hoping it was just an exhaust leak and they found none, Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
