<< I have the same thing!!! I have a K&N 14" on a Mr.Gasket chrome pan set. I
 cannot isolate the whistle. I think it is where the breather connection goes
 into the bottom of the pan. I have thought about trying some silicoln on it,
 but then it wont be able to rotate in there when ya try to take it off.

Somebody on here mentioned there air cleaner hitting a bracket, or bolt ont he
front of the motor. Possible that the aircleaner is sitting off the throttle
body, creating this noise? Maybe a gasket between air cleaner base and TB
would help. They sell them at ever parts place. Should be same gasket as a
Holley 4 barrel.
