The vib is strictly engine/RPM...it will do it in neutral, or any other gear. It is a very fast vibration if that helps at all.

I was thinking in the beginning that it could be harder rubber, and needed some breaking in...that's why I am giving it a little time now. One thing that does strike me as odd is that you can't see my motor shaking at all (with the old or new mounts). You can see the accessories shaking like he11 all around it, but the engine looks solid.

Fuel has not been disconnected at all since the replacement, and I have been getting full power. I am pretty sure there is no air in the line...I cannot see any in the prefilter, or in the clear line coming from the IP.

I haven't found the FSM stuff yet, I don't even know where to look since the old copies (from that 1 site) went away. Sorry, I can't even remember his name now. If I take the bolts out now, everything lines up perfectly...given I don't know how it is "supposed" to sit, but it's all lined up to sight. I even did what was suggested earlier to loosen everything and let the engine run....it didn't move a bit.

Like I said before, it was a LOT worse with the forward-aft facing bolt in the trans mount. I think I am going to take the metal tube out next to see if that helps at all. It was connected but sat loose in there with the old mounts, and is very tight in there now. That might still have something to do with it. I am going to play with that tomorrow when it's warmer.
