It might be shaking alot because of your motor mounts?? Not sure but 750 is good maybe alittle higher. Have you checked your timing to make sure that was right on because if its not then you could receive a rough idle. my .02cents

You can set the timing properly by unplugging the IACV and turning the idle up to 750.
