Does anyone know if the MSD version of the
LS1 coil is more reliable?

Thanks for a second data point, Mark.
I strongly suspect that you are correct, we simply are
driving coils designed for start/stop slow go automobiles rather than constant
hour after hour of 6000+ rpm operations.
But, I suspect that excess heat is still the core of
the problem whether under cowl heat or internal heat due to electrical power
use at high rpms.
