You risk stripping out your head stud. NOT GOOD!!!!!

You better start praying you have not stretched the threads on the studs and nuts, cos if you have they are going to come loose and blow every head gasket you fit with them in the future.

The pressures applied to incorrectly tensioned head nuts can be immense due to expansion and contraction.

Torque settings are for a reason.
