Default Bad Stud thread

Trying to finish my spare engine and was torquing the head nuts. Everything went fine at 25ft lbs, 36 ft lbs, 48 ft lbs, and then finishing up at 55 ft lbs and the threads failed on #14 on the chart!!! Damn, now I gotta pull the head and helicoil that hole. Worst part is wasting the new head gasket!
