I recommend also to verify what Jerry mentioned before, regarding exhaust pressure: do you have a exhaust lift? direct exhaust like a Catalina 27? Ever checked if there was no exhaust flex hose pipe crumbling on itself? pluggage in the exhasut? The fact that you run a minute stable tend to show that your manifold is likely not plugged, as it would not even run one minute. But could be a poorly working water lift due to flow restrictions?
anyway, you will find on that forum a few individuals that love these kinds of hard to find issues, especially as you seem to have already been checking quite a few things...

Thank you,
I have checked the exhaust and it has a great water flow out the exhaust pipe.
