vortec v6 distributor caps

just throwing one out there, got a 7fgcu35 with vortec v6, hvs ignition. got one out of 6 units burning out distributor caps. basically changed plugs, leads, rotor and coil. fit new cap runs a couple of weeks and starts crossfiring in the cap again, you can see the (blue) track marks in the cap. any ideas?? has anyone had this problem?
as i work for hyster dealer have been using our own cap,leads etc. when it came time to source a coil noticed the hyster uses a two terminal plug whereas a toyota coil uses a three pin plug, anyone know what the difference could be...
