I'd have a high quality shop install a new bottom bracket and just use a Dura Ace because it's cheap and reliable. But before doing any of that please provide a lot more detail on how it fails.

Mode of failure is that the bearings start to become notched and is noticeable when I spin the cranks without the chain on. I would like to think that I work at a high quality shop and had have other mechanics check out my installation of bottom bracket and cranks just to be sure.
