engine shaking when my car is at an idle the enging shakes and my friend thinks it shakes too much side to side how much should it shake with heads and a cam and 400 hp to the wheels at idle, what could be wrong if its not suppose to be doin this
umm it should shake a lot unless you have solid or poly motor mounts...i know mine shakes a lot...it is also untuned though...i'd say quite a bit of shake is normal for any decently sizedcammed car

400 hp to the wheels at idle? Thats one badass engine. I know what you mean just giving you a hard time. Anyway dont know if youve owned any other f-bodies but the LS1 is pretty refined compared to gen 1 and 2 engines.

How many miles are on your car? How much hard track time? Stock motor mounts wear after awhile, I pulled mine off and they were pretty tweaked, put some prothane mounts on and the engine is rock solid.... the car shakes instead...
