Default 2012 Dyna Chain Conversion Help!

I have a 2012 dyna fxdb converted from 96'' to 103 with 10.5:1 comp and 585 cam with s/e intake and thndr hdr exhaust. She's pushing a little over 100hp with even more torque. because of the abuse and how I ride, I've destroyed the belt and eventually replaced it. 15k miles later the replacement belt is missing more teeth AGAIN. So I've decided to switch over to chain drive.


does anyone know what spacers/offset for front and rear would be most beneficial? I'm also noticing the ratio of the final drive has a ratio of 2:1. If this isn't correct, what is?
