The main problem is:

The magnets have to be reasonably close to the spark gap.  5,000 degree
temps tend to eliminate the magnetism in the magnets.  It's like fighting a
fire with a gasoline hose.

It can work if you use some thick Nomex or other good heat blocking material
between the magnet and the gap.

RSG's are simplier to construct with less fiddling around and they work very
well.
