You should change the pins, then. The AtMega2560 has a hardware configuration that is different from the AtMega168/328, as you have seen, so anything you can do to modify the MPGuino code to fit the AtMega2560 will help you.
As to whether it's causing your continual resets... That's a good question. Only thing I can suggest is to keep on finding the spots in the MPGuino code that are hardware dependent, and change them. That, and keep good notes.

In the mega, the Timer0 and Timer2 are 8bits as the atmega 328, and the rest are 16bit.
To change the timer and keep 8bits, could only be with Timer0, which somewhat limits the options, I think the best is to change the pins and keep the Timer2.
What is your opinion regarding this issue.

Keep Timer2, if at all possible. The MPGuino code is written to use Timer2, so changing the timer will cause you to have to extensively re-write the code. Concentrate on getting the code to work with the AtMega2560 hardware, first.

Sounds like you have set yourself up to be able to simplify your LCD output routines.
