I'm ordering a chain in the next few days. I know I've got to get a 530 but thats about all I know. How many links? Whats the best bang for the buck and where do I get it?
 
Any top brand is good. DID EK etc.

I prefer EK zvx is great. I use zzz but I am running 200lbs of torque and 350hp.
 
I keep hearing about x ring this and o ring that. What does this mean and how does it affect what I want to by? How many links for the stock wheelbase?
 
112?

I thought it was 120 with the EK ZZZ....

stock chain is 112 links but you are larger then a 42 in the back you might need a longer chain. Here is a little info on the difference.

What’s the difference between O-rings and EK’s Quadra-X Ring seals?

Both offer perfectly adequate sealing to contain the grease between the pins and bushings, and to keep contaminants out. But the disadvantage of O-rings versus non-sealed chains is increased friction, caused by the sideplates rubbing against the rubber seals. That’s why racers often opt for non-sealed chains, even though it means they have to replace their chains more frequently.

EK invented the O-ring chain for motorcycles back in 1974, but we’ve improved on our invention with the revolutionary Quadra-X Ring seal. The Quadra-X Ring reduces friction by as much as 40 percent, thanks to its smaller contact area. Yet it offers even better sealing than a conventional O-ring, because it has twice as many contact points between the ring and sideplates. It’s the optimal combination of maximum sealing protection with minimum friction. Bench tests show that EK Quadra-X Ring chains last 50 percent longer than standard O-ring chains.

If you are under 350 hp go with the EK ZVX if you are doing a lot of drag racing go with the ZZZ. Let me know if I can assist you further.
 
I'd be up for a groupbuy on an EK ZVX or ZZZ in gold. What kind of prices for groupbuy
