Floor vibrations

I have some noticeable vibrations coking from my accelerator pedal. Took the car in a drive an. Experimented with high and low rpm, then out it in neutral at high speeds to see if it was suspension causing it and if seems minimal in neutral but a little more extreme when loaded and in higher rpm.

Here's what I think it may be:


- Recently installed powerflex lca bushings , although alignment was done precious to the install.
- or both Lower and upper engine mounts are torn. Upper being the torque mount
- slight wobble in the steering but nothing to extremes, tires could be bad, they're already balanced.

Thoughts?
