The other thing that concerns me is that it is only happening, so far, under load. I would venture to say, smoke color aside, that a cylinder compression test may be prudent just in case you have a ring going bad. Since you dont have true dual exhaust and cant duplicate the conditions we cant really narrow to which side this may be originating so test all 8. Have you looked at the spark plugs? I have a compression tester at home if you need it but I bet you have one too.
My bets are on head gasket or ring.
