I assumed it was because of the engine braking torquing the motor and when I pushed in the clutch, the engine sprung back to its natural position. The two could be related...maybe when motor mounts are old and you hit the clutch with just the right frequency, it shudders the engine into a bouncy wobble?
My motor and transmission mounts were replaced when I did the clutch. Replaced them with Wevo semi-solids so I can safely say it isn't the mounts, everything is tied down fairly tightly.
