520 conversion?
I have read the tensil strength of some 520's are nearly as strong as the 530 chains. How much weight can be saved by this conversion? Will it hold up for normal usage.(limited to zero, drag racing)

Dont know anyone that has done a 520 conversion on a 12 or Busa...They have too much torque...

You'll save about 2lbs.
Should work fine up to 220hp.

I believe Zhooligan was using a 520 setup, and he was making over 260 rwhp?
