My 99 2200 does that sometimes, but it's more like a light rattle. I can push the clutch pedal down and let off, and the noise usually goes away. I've put over 30,000 miles on the car without issue so I don't really worry about the noise. Does it sometimes with the new clutch in it also. As far as the shake goes I couldn't tell you. Only time my car ever shook at a certain rev range was when the front O2 was going bad and running pig rich.

Throwout bearing is bad. No telling how long it'll last. Could go a long time like that.

It is TOB related. I was always told that it means TOB is bad, but I have had brand new knows do it. I think it is from no pressure holding it against the fingers on the pressure plate.
