Surprisingly often on Saabs. seems to me they 'Blew the Budget' on High Grade Steel in the block.. as in my experiences Saab Bolts are the easiest to shear I've encountered in 35 yrs of working on cars.
Be carefull with them, and don't use Moly Grease on any engine bolt threads.. this allows double the tensile pressure at the same Torque spec as a lightly oiled thread.
