A little more investigation, and it's the throwout bearing.  When it's sitting there in neutral, the TO bearing makes noisy little clunks.  When I push in the clutch and engage the bearing, it quiets up.  I figure I'll just run it until it grenades.  The original TO bearing I took out did the same thing, and it wasn't really that bad.  Just replaced it because it came with the clutch set.

Ouch. You're just gonna wait until it blows up?

I think it's just noisy.  I'm going to ignore it until it grenades, yes.  It As long as it doesn't take the clutch with it, I'll still be able to clutchless shift it back home.  I think it'll last quite a while.  Besides that, it's too cold to take the tranny out, plus it's not summer when I have more time to dick with it.
