Default 1998 camaro z28 ls1 misfire?

im not too sure this is true at all...but i was at a buddies house and he does know alot more then i do about camaros. i own a 1998 camaro z28 with an ls1. the engine does shake a little bit when idling but it doesnt seem like much to me but he said its doing that because of low end misfire? or a bad engine mount? i really have no clue beacause there is no trouble code for it and it runs GREAT. it seems normal to me, let me know what you think

i have a 1998 formula and i have to say mine does shake a little more then my friends with 99+'s. I really only notice the when its warming up. Then it gets less noticeable. But it is there. My car has 93k miles and still runs like a champ so i'm assuming its normal too.

Normally whenever I've had a misfire it would eventually throw a code...

Some of them do shake a little bit, when the motor mounts get old they don't hold as well.

As long as it runs well I wouldn't worry about it
