harsh vibration after timing gear swap 120-130

This is following on from the 'hillbilly' post below.

I had the fibre gear swapped recently. At high speeds there is a vibration which I can feel going right into my back. It's not terribly loud, but the general noise at these speeds (60-70) has gone up, whether it's 4th or overdrive. But the vibration is definitely there.

Is this the same problem, or is there something else that may not have been put back right? There is also a whine for about 5 minutes when starting from cold, which goes up in pitch with the engine revs. I've checked the little fins on the alternator and they aren't fouling against anything. I'd appreciate any ideas for either of these questions. Thanks

Tom
