Pull the codes since if it is running like that it will probably throw some, then post them here.

Did you have the car on the road before the 2.8L swap? Did you use the Tri-pod set up? or do you have the longgggggggggg p.side CV joint? If you've torched on it with that CV in there you could have done some damage to it. How much have you driven it since the swap? Possible chance that the Flywheel or even pressure plate bolts are working loose, did u torque em and use some loc-tite? Loose wheels should be checked for too. Since you obviously had em off to do the swap.
