Default Intake manifold replacement TSB

Now I see that there is a TSB for my whistling intake manifold. I just had my rings done about a month ago. I really don't want to go through another engine disassembly. Thoughts on the subject? :confused:

Hi there,
Its a 2 hour install, and all they do is take the manifold off.

Has it been shown whether or not the whistling manifold has any negative impact on performance? My whistle is not very noticable, and I don't mind it, so I wouldn't do it unless there was a good reason. Thanks.

As long as I have a choice and there are no performance issues, I'll take a whistle any day, compared to having anything from my car thrown in the muck and grime in the back room of my local Shivvy dealer!!! :yesnod: They don't even have a Vette certified mechanic (excuse me, I show my age) "technician!"
