I'm guessing you're looking at detonation.
Detonation causes abnormally high cylinder pressures and heat which would explain loose head studs.
Ignition malfunction is a pretty good guess.
I'm wondering why you're running cylinders with a CE rings instead of flat tops or Ni-resist rings with that much compression?
What cams are you running? Did you calculate dynamic compression?
