Since you have the DHP it will act a little different then before.
But the motor should Not move/vibrate excessively back and forth.
The belt tensioner is supposed to move to keeep tension steady.
I know what your saying about the way it moves rapidly but sorta random shaking  that make sense ?
And, the powersteering pump and the AC, if thier having troubles they can cause more drag on the belt thus pulling the pulley more or less as needed to keep the belt tight.
If its bad it'll be stiff and not move,
or will not keep the belt tight and cause the belt to slip.

DHP shouldnt affect too much...
The intermittent shake where it feels like something is holding it back... is only when im in drive.. guess ill add that and after I havent ran the GA in a good few hrs. (morning drive to work) .. way home its fine. You might be right with it being something else like a pump... my power steering I need to check on (fluid) I have a known leak somewhere or it overflows but not sure.... not serious just prob needs to be checked/refilled again...
The hard shake when the A/C is off is mysterious.. the whole engine kinda wobbles but not extreme.. its more just on the belt... not sure why its more "violent" when the A/C is switched off but

who knows..
whats all on the belt line that could create resistance? water pump, power steering... ?

hopefully this sat. I can have the coolant flushed and pressure checked, got my fuel filter, new K&N oil filter and 180t-stat just the other day from pfyc. Should I do the coolant flush/PSI check before oil change?.. see if theres any coolant or fluid flush stuff in the oil afterwards...
Basically on the list for service on Saturday..
Coolant flush, PSI check
Oil Change, new K&N filter can
Power steering fluid check
Install new fuel filter
