Default Metallic Exhaust Note 3.9 LTZ

Hello!
I have a 2006 3.9 LTZ Monte Carlo (obviously) with two flowmaster 40s and a resonator delete with 3" tips (bolted on/not welded for now temporarily) and my exhaust sounds like metally, like there is metal rumbling around in my exhaust, does anybody know what this is or can tell me what this is or anything?

Put a glasspack on it, may make it sound a little better.

Loose baffles in the cat converter? Heat shield on the resonator rattling?

perhaps what you are hearing is rasp from deleting the resonator. post a video of it so we can hear it.
