Ive heard trucks and tractors sound like this for a couple years now and it may be a dumb question I should know but what makes this truck lope before take off is this video?
 
The biggest reason is because while spooling up the rack in the injection pump is boucing back and forth befor going to full fuel.
 
I'm not 100% sure this is correct but I think when the governor is modified for high rpms by using stronger springs and/or lighter weights, they can't counter-balance each other properly at lower rpms. So the springs and weights are kind of playing tug of war with the rack.
 
Its a combination of pump cam profile, timing, and gov springs
