Engine Roughness

I have the M113 engine and have noticed while sitting in the car with the transmission in park if I raise the engine rpm above 1500 rpm there is a noticeable roughness. Below 1500 rpm the engine runs smooth.
Any ideas what would cause this?

When the mounts went on my 500, the engine would literally lift the hood on stop and go traffic, when I came to a stop and felt loose when accelerating out ha ha.


You would feel it rock the car
