If anyone can help me find some master links for the chain provided in the kit it would be a huge help and save me much time. If you can, thank you in advance.
As for posting this in the motors section, it seemed relevant. If you have a problem with it I'm sorry but there is no need to freak out.

Try mcmaster.com then search for roller chain and look under accesories. Pitch is 35 (3/8ths)

Try a "real" auto parts store, such as NAPA, Car Quest, etc. Or a lawnmower shop. Or Ace hardware. They are readily available in most towns.
edit: yeah, you are looking for "number 35 chain" master links

Forget the master links.
Buy a # 35 chain breaker. They are quicker, and the chain will not fail at the master link.
Any Go kart parts supplier has them for $20 or so.
Be sure to get the one made for # 35 chain and not the universal one.
Good luck!

Wouldn't you still need to reattach them after breaking them? via master link or re-riveting?
