Here is what I have going on.
I am currently running MF9 stock Odexed. I am downloading Sacs V5 Deodexed rom. I can just flash this through CWM Recovery right?

Simple yes. Just make sure you wipe clean everything, no dirty flash. Also make backup of your set up just in case.

So I made a backup of my stock TW state with TWRP and then flashed over to a custom ROM.
Is it safe to just restore the backup of the original stock, rooted TW ROM?

yes
I didn't Loki my original TW though. Would that be a prob?
I just installed the recovery via Goo Manager and flashed a Loki'd ROM

Why would you need to Loki the original TW? It's a signed AT&T ROM, it's gonna verify just fine with or without loki
im a on custom rom right now and i have nandriod back up of stock touch wiz. if there is an ota update can i just go back to the back up i made and just do the update
Won't work if you have a custom recovery. You'd have to wait for a modified update than you can flash.

Yes. But I was assuming that's not what the OP wanted.

To get this all straight to update I would have to flash rom version of the update?

Since you are already running a custom rom you can just flash an MDL based rom. However, you will not have the MDL modem/firmware. If you want this either get your phone back to factory stock via Odin or if you can restore a nandroid and stock recovery (whatever it takes to flash the OTA update) then you can get to the MDL stock rom with MDL modem/firmware. From what I have read most have to Odin back to stock but a few have said with stock recovery and no app changes the OTA flashed successfully. Personally I would just use Odin, take the update, root/custom recovery, and be done with it. Your choice.
**EDIT....can now flash the modems separately without having to use the OTA procedure: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2338919
I am kind of in the same boat. I have stock rom but I rooted it and installed custom recovery. I can't seem to find any of the flashable modded OTA updates. Can some one point me to them?

What rom? Twrp isn't a rom, it's a recovery
Well... You need to read through the development section... What you are looking for is there. You could also do all those things yourself if you are still on stock MDL.

There like a 99.99999% chance you won't brick going from odex to deodexed
So yes you can install Sacs ROM .

All you have to do is flash Phiz recovery via PC Odin to give you a custom recovery. Here's the tar
However if you own Mobile Odin PRO, and since you say you are rooted, you can flash the .tar through Mobile Odin PRO. [just make sure it's updated to latest version]; then select 'recovery' in the options then the .tar.md5 file.
Download Sac's latest on you PC check the md5sum and transfer to you externalSD card, boot to recovery and flash 4.3
Then follow Sac's install instructions. Especially important is the wiping procedure. rlmiller has a good writeup here.
Spend some time reading and searching through the OPs and follow-up posts and you'll do okay.
Good luck.
Did you get it up and running?
