Actually, they were only torqued to 110. The 140 was for a previous 1 ton Chevy I owned. I agree that the stud must have been weak. It showed obvious stretching beore it snapped clean off at the thread base. None of the others exhibited this . I should have measured the new studs with a micrometer so I could compare to the ones I pulled out. Might have been interesting.
Thanks,,
