I suspected fuel starvation from the start.

I would get some Bose noise canceling earphones that will connect to various audio devices. Consider seeing if you can find some sort of audio switching device so that you can plug all your stuff into it and then switch between them. I would also get the most comfortable seats I could find...

Sounds like improper gear lash that eventually wore out the flex plate.
