Angry Dana head bolts. . . JUNK?

I bought new dana head bolts. Was torquing when 2 snapped! WTF?! Anyone else have this problem? Any explanation? I always thought dana was a pretty reputable co. maybe just a bad batch of bolts. I followed the instructions to the T and was using a freshly calibrated snap on Torque wrench? Any feedback?

Are you sure they are not torque to yield bolts?
If not what ft/lbs were you using?

I have always used ARP.

I just installed a set and had no problems with them.
