Thanks for all your input...
John...What you describe is drone for sure. Some people are more sensitive to it, some have it but don't know they do until their wife tells them she's getting a headache..

I had a bit of that with my Vette after adding headers and HFC;s. One thing that helped a lot was a complete sound deadening of the rear hatch area. I used Damplifier from Second skin. It was a bit of work, but dampened the resonances and other noises nicely. I plan to do this to the Z as there is a fair amount of thin, undamped sheet metal back there. For $100 it may solve your problem and give you some other benefits too without pulling off parts.

The back of the vette wa like a big plastic bass drum!
