I have a 218/224 on a 110LSA cam waiting for mine. The truck has a 3000 9.5" Vigilante in it already. I went ahead and got a TBSS intake and a 90mm throttle body to go with it when I finally get the time to get it all installed.

Should be a good combo you have going. Post some vids when you get it all installed.

212/218 will work much better In your truck than a tr220
Tr220 lacks lowend torque
I ran both the 212/218 and tr220

grey u weren't running enough gear or converter for that tr220. 220 or 224 with a 9.5" 3600 will be fine with his 3.73s.
I say 220 if your going to keep the stock 862.
224 if your planning on upgrading to either worked 862s or milled 243s.

a NNBS intake with a 90mm TB will be another upgrade for later.

Heads will definitely be next in line, as well as probably a tbss intake.

Should I keep my current corvette servo or change it out for the fairbanks servos?

Agreed, the 220 is to sluggish down low. If I could redo it I would go with vincis trucker cam.
