Poly trans mount

I installed my poly trans mount today after i broke another one (rubber OEM) last night. I installed it and the car seems to vibrate quite a bit now or atleast i feel a vibration when im getting into the gas a bit. Is this normal? Thanks
Jon

*EDIT*
Thanks to j0n and Jake for helping me out today.

Yes this is normal. However if you're having excessive vibration you may have a bigger problem with your engine balance.

It's normal, usually people say it will get better after 500 miles or so... i dunno but or some reason mine vibrates more now than when I isntalled it but that's just me.

I got the same thing when I installed the poly dogbone engine mounts on my Lumina. The idle still feels a bit rough, but they got much better after a few hundred miles.
