Shaking car?
firstly.. my car shakes like a lawnmower on crack.
is there a significant difference between weight of the 85.5 engine to the S2 that's in it now? is it just to much power? or are the motor mounts going bad?
somebody finally felt my car and said they were getting a nice massage

Yes, I'd start with balance shafts.
If it only happens while driving, I'd say you have a wheel way out of balance, or a broken brake rotor.
If it happens when you're still - and it's not the balance shafts, maybe your clutch disk or pressure plate has disintegrated.

Could also be motor mounts going bad... However if you swapped a different motor in there, I figure that would be taken care of already. I'd also second the balance shafts otherwise.

I doubt it could be motormounts, mine was pretty bad when I replaced them and only problem was vibration.
+ 1 on balance shafts or non-engine related problem.
