Oh and I ordered the 997 shifter just now as well.

Motor mount is a pretty simple job, especially if you have ramps and a jack.
Syncros, as you guessed, is not a small job. Porsche used to replace transmissions, they now rebuild, I think. there are other companies that now rebuild our transmissions too. You can get different gear ratios and they probably upgrade the syncros too.

Hopefully the new shifter takes care of your issue.
