harsh vibration after timing gear swap 120-130

The vibration is probably from the drivetrain, not the engine. Probably a bad u-joint. If it were engine you'd feel it at a certain RPM, not road speed.

The whining is probably okay. Did you lean the oil spray nozzle fo the cam gears; were the old gears getting oiled okay? It may whine for a bit, then settle down.
