Default New stall installed?

well i got my new tci 3800 stall converter installed yesterday..omg its so freaken awsome...and i blew out a tire a few days before the installation riding on a donut waiting for my tires to come in ...i think this donut is going to blow up before they get here due to the stall and the can't control myself from touching the gas..its deffinitly noticeable and a great gain just cant wait to get traction...but i have a question i also put in a crapy polymere trans mount with the converter and i have a lot more noticeable viberations...is this normal is it the trans mount or the stall?...thanks for the help...

Yeah I have vibration with my poly motor, trans, and torque arm mount. I really started to notice it with the stall. I was concerned at first but I only notice it between 42 to 47 when it is locked up. When it is locked at like 50 it is hardly there.
