Default how do i move fuel plate?????

hey guys i'm new to this web page and new to the cummins world. I've heard of people moving the fuel plate toward the radiator and getting more power. I'm a mechanic by trade so i know my way very well around the shop but cummins is a different world to me. I have a 97 valve 4x4 and i'm adding exhaust and intake ect. I want to a little more power and blow black smoke. Any one have pics on how to do this and where its at? which way to move it ect..... thanks
