Default MSD Coil Buys The Farm At 450 Miles?

Took #142 out for an errand today, about half way home, sputters out. No spark. Coil dead as a doorknob.

Pulled the MSD Blaster 2, replaced it with a Accel, fired right up. FYI, running a MSD 6AL box, and Ford Duraspark Distributor

Called MSD's tech service, explained what happened, and the tech ruled out heat, vibration or incorrect installation (they are best installed vertically, as is mine). He just had no idea, other than offering "could have been a defective unit".

Anybody else out there had a MSD coil lunch with 450 miles on it?
