Will 370 injectors give me lower RPM torque ?

I have a # 10 plate but low rpm torque is not the best in my truck, it REALLY wakes up at 1800 and up, but I want lower rpm torque.

If I remove the plate and add 370hp injectors will they give me better results ?

I tow a lot and the lower end is what I use mostly.

Nope, just gonna get it hot. If anything play with the starwheel and try to get the fuel to come in sooner to light that turbo.

You should adjust your governor arm. Sounds like yours is to low.

What has been stated is true...

now whats the timing at in this truck? if its stock, ur governer arm is outta whack. If you dont wanna adjust it, move the plate back till u know that it is not diving under the plate.. The arm (with teh solenoid pulled up) should hit the tip of the plate and slide a little bit upwards...

Ok, I'm a little late here. Where do i find the governor adjustment instructions, I searched the forum but cannot find the thread.

When I look down the AAFC housing I see my plate but I don't have enough room to see the gov arm.
