MSD 6AL help gets hot and dies!!

I have a 6al on my tpi and all the sudden it gets real hot and then stalls the car and it wont start again till it cools off. I have checked every thing I think. The coil ohms out ok I checked the ground to its ok as well. After it died again the other day I reconnected the ignition back to stock it started right up!!

Anybody else have their msd do this? Or could something else be wrong in the ignition system to cause it to get hot?
