If the motor is misaligned with the trans, then you will have some issues. you would see a gap between the trans and motor if this were the situation. I am not aware of this engine having a balance shaft. that would cause a vibration if it was out of sync. this would not be touched if the trans was replaced though. Only if teh timing belt was changed.

the trans and engine can be shifted within the mounts, but about 1/2" max movement which would not affect much. I would ask for clarification on the diagnosis.
