 I'm looking for general opinions (no lack of those on this list) on
 appropriate toroid/top load  sizes for a secondary 6" in diameter and about
 30" long.
 
 Also, max power and breakrates that folks have run on a coil this size.

I have a coil about the same size.  I use two toroids, the lower one is 30" x 
6" and the upper toroid is 40" x 6".  I have a 5kva 14,400 volt transformer 
that I run at about 7 - 8 kva.  The coil produces 104" sparks.  This was with 
both an async gap running at about 300 to 500 bps and the new sync rotary 
running at 240 pbs.  You can see pictures at my web site:
