motor stability?
So I picked up my 'vette at the shop ( new FIC injectors,new MAF, new ignition wires/plugs,rotor/cap and other work done). What a difference! Now I have a new concern: when I accelerate while in park, I can immediately feel the torque of the engine and feel it actually lift (?) and tilt the car, it seems, to the right. Is this normal? Should I be concerned with any motor mount issues? As far as I know, everthing is original ('86).
Thanks

absolutely normal.. If you are curious about your motor mounts open the hood start the car and put it in drive.. then with the brakes on give it a little gas the engine should and will lift a bit even a couple inches with the frame flex etc.. but when you let off it should not "clunk" back down.
