262 Chevy V6, Edelbrock Performer extractors, Edelbrock 500 cfm carb, currently 2 into 1 then a 90's SS exhaust system (hi flo cat and one muffler I think). Has nasty resonance around 2500 rpm, loud drone. Would like to put on twin exhausts all the way back. Any suggestions, pitfalls? Had heard that V6 doesn't work well with twin system, poss need some sort of pressure equaliser? Any advice welcome.

Thanks to 70 Ute for web ref and advice re crossover pipe. Into the shop tomorrow so will see what they make of it. I guess that the comment on that site "Connecting rods in the 4.3L V6’s are not compatible with any other Chevy engines." means the promis
