Default How bad should an Ls1 with a cam shake when it's idling?

So I have an ls1 out of an 01 trans am in my third gen camaro. The motor is stock except for a cam, 230/224 .575/.563 111 LSA. When it sits and idles the motor shakes alot. I've talked to several people who have put cams in Ls1's before and they say it shouldn't shake that much. Any ideas of what would cause this? Could it be the tune? All the motor mounts, trans mounts etc. are new, also the car smokes just a little bit when rev'd and you can smell fuel as if it's running rich. The guy I had tune it says all this is normal for an LS1 with a cam.
