Default broken motor mount?

I have asked a couple of my buddies and they think it might be the motor mount but I will ask yall.
When I am at a stop light my mustang starts to shake/vibrate. Feels like my engine is shaking my car. When I start going (straight drive) and start shifting gears my gear lever shakes ALOT. basically my car is vibrating alot and it just started up. Anyone had this problem? what should i do?

Motor mount. Do you feel a vibration in the steering wheel when revving the engine?

Misfire??

When I took my motor out of my Cobra, the drivers motor mount was broken. The rubber piece just rips apart from the metal strap. Didnt even notice it. I didnt have time to wait for the new one so I installed the new motor with the broken mount

Never noticed a bad vibe afterwards and as far as I know the guy is still cruising around with it

Yeah, mine ripped apart too. I was strapped for cash, so I ground the rivets out, reseated the rubber and put actual bolts in. Haven't had a problem since then.
