OK so I ended up taking it to Preciscon Motor Sports in Long Valley NJ. It turns out the rubber center on the clutch let go and then the pinion gear was ground down to nothing. (It seems I should have done the clutch a while ago)
He had a used Transmission with about 50K miles on it. Put in a new spring center clutch with the new trans and put my shorter 5th gear in the new trans.
Willie did a great job and did some other little fixes while he was at it (found a leaking vacuum line). The car runs smoother than ever and the clutch feels great!
He had a bunch of track cars and some nice street cars there as well (993s, 996s, 964s, 928s and 924s). He also seems to have a reason passion for our 944s.
I recommend him to anyone in the area who needs work done.

Takes getting used to, it's hard to drive smoothly. Any imperfect shift, the car will let you know in dramatic ways.
I think it's more fun that way. It's not undrivable by any means. I doubt it made the car faster but it definitely changes it's personality.
It's really something that should be felt rather than described.
