A little more detail. What RPM ranges does it shake or does it shake all the time? Try taking it to a different shop that specializes in engine swaps and such.

If it's aligned properly, suspension bushings, wheel bearings, tires balanced and ball joints are in good shape, you're looking at an axle issue. Tends to be pretty common on the H swaps.

Since you're a newb, I'll go easy, but this should really be in the hybrid section. Not suspension.
