have Billy Boat Cat Backs , the Route 66 system ,have read where you add weights to the pipes SOMEWHERE , to cancel out some of the drone .
my question is where to add the weights and how much /size of weights
Really, send the money, will do it real quick, but if you research the weight thingie , auto manufactures did this for years to stop/ limit drone, and there are post by real car guys who have done the weight thing , but was looking to see if any Vette guys have experimented with the weights

you ASSumed to much, no need to fill you in. but obviously you have no knowledge or input on the drone / weight thing
No Bucks , but build stuff . old school 1957 pan 1933 2005
You can buy a system, such as Corsa, which advertises no drone. ( By the way, I have a Corsa exhaust and I have no drone. )
"nobucks" is correct. The drone you are describing is due to the harmonic resonance of the exhaust system.
All the aspects of: (generally speaking)
exhaust pipe length
metal gauge
exhaust pulses (rpm)
nodal points (hanger location)
weight location (stock - there are no weights on the pipes) at non-nodal points will reduce may/will change or reduce the drone at a specific frequency
will affect the drone you experience.
I might have left out a few, but based on the solutions the aftermarket provides, it is the mitigation of the resonance of the exhaust pulses that provides the largest benefit. (I do not have first-hand knowledge of exhaust system design, but my response is based on what I have learned in my classes.)

buy the way ,NO BUCKS is kinda like saying I'm a poor white boy,, but that might be racist ?
