I don't have a problem with periodic noises but constant vibration/noise that I obviously created is another story.
Motor mounts coupled with aftermarket cams are only going to shake your car loose. Add in stiff(er) suspension, a stiffer clutch, a driveline that has had rubber bushings replaced with urethane/solid ones... Eventually you'll be expecting trim pieces to be falling off over every bump.
