Anyone had the cap carbon ball wear off and getting a lot of material transfer from the rotor to cap terminals? I'm starting on number 3 cap and rotor replacement with 800 miles now. I'm still tuning and get wet plugs which always leads me back to the damn cap and rotor. I do have another unit to compare it, but initial "feel" checks everything seems to be ok. I am running a bronze gear which I had the machine shop set up due to the wonderful directions on the MSD literature. I haven't pulled the distributor yet, but I'm starting to wonder if something is off tolerance. No felt side clearance, axial play has no feel difference to the extra one, and just a little cam gear clearance.

I have several grounds installed and was very particular on wire routing for EMI and EMF. I don't have any issues with operation, just cap and rotor wear. And yes I replaced both at the same time.

I couldn't post on the MSD site yet since they have to approve you, but I did do a fairly extensive search and didn't find and related threads.
