They all seem to do that. I dunno what it is about em. My last one did the same thing. Rebuilt it all and then it ran like shit. You'll need new motor mounts for sure. Cut the old ones off and I believe energy suspension makes a universal rubber 'mount' for engines, just gotta fab up your own brackets.
