Did you also check the operations of the engine shocks? I have seen them look ok visually, but had no resistance when actually moved. The engine shocks should be pretty stiff to move.

Glad to here the mounts are good.

I failed to mentioned I did that. I even switched injectors around to see if would calm down. As for the shocks, there were some resistance I that though were ok, but I am not really sure what a "new" shock would feel like.

I changed mine out about 2 months ago. New ones are nearly impossible to move up and down when they are out of the car. In the car you can move them, but it is hard to do.

My old ones, one was actually broken off, the other had the lower rubber mounts missing. I could move the old ones really easy, even out of the car.
