If I'm remembering correctly one can pull 1/2 his weight based on the friction of you standing on the ground. So if you weigh 200 lbs you can pull 100 lbs. If you use a 3 1/2 ft. cheater bar you will come close to the 340 you are looking for by pulling as hard as you can.
If you brace your foot against something all bets are off.
So I guess the OP merely needs to start eating. When he gets to 780 lbs body weight, he's all set, no torque wrench needed.
Or 680 lbs, if he only needs to increase his body weight to twice the torque required?
(340 x 2 = 680 in my universe):B
