My ohmmeter says the coil is suspicious, and my #3 plug wire gave me some weird, inconsistent resistance readings too... So I'm going to swap the coil and plug wires and cross my fingers.
But part of me still harbors a nagging suspicion that the controller in my MSD 8352 distributor might also have been a factor (I've got a post out on the MSD troubleshooting forum- we'll see what they have to say.)
So, if I do get it back up and running again this week, a half day turnaround trip to Payson might be a better idea to shake it out, instead of a 500+ mile, full weekend trip.
We'll see...

I now carry a extra coil with me, back in 2009 I was also stuck on the side of the 101 with the wife.
Thankfully and good friend helped me out and brought out every electrical item that it could be and it was the coil.
Thanks again Jeff Classic.
