Default Slight engine vibration during hard acceleration - Cause?

Anyone know what causes rough engine response during hard acceleration? My AR accelerates fine, but there seems to be a vibration in the engine when you hammer the throttle. Bad spark plug, missing, vacuum leak?

Default Engine mounts wear out perhaps or the infamous radiator fan took a hit and a thousand more reasons.

Anything that spins around in circles and is out of alignment could trigger vibrations, from wheels, over axles to a simple accessory belt....impossible to tell remotely, get an Indy and have him test drive it before it gets worse.....

Will do - again, only happens on hard acceleration, not during constant throttle or no throttle. Freeway is as smooth as they come. It's a very light vibration and is only a minor annoyance.
