Does any member recommend fitting a Rob Beere Automatic Air Bleed Valve to the manifold? Seems like a good improvement or not?

While I wouldn't say it's not worthwhile, I've had 3 E types (2 3.8, and 1 4.2) and never had an issue with overheating or feeling the need to bleed the last few cc's of air (if in fact it exists) from the intake manifold.
Quite possibly it would have value on a competition engine, something about which Rob Beere knows a thing or three, as those engines see more and more frequent high rpm time with the resultant heat and possible cavitation. But thousands of 'street' E's burbling along just fine without one.
