How do I modify values sent to Arcade Drive for individual motors?. So far example, I have x * 0.9 sent to the left motors, and x sent to the right motors.

Slack in the chain won't cause a side to travel slower, unless you have so much slack that it's skipping teeth. If that's the case, you really need to fix the mechanical problem.

In labview, I noticed the open function requires 2 motors, or does it? Maybe someone can get me some help. But I'm trying to send individual values to each motor controller and I'm wondering if I have to supply 2 motors or can I just use one...

For a mechanism other then a drive train, use the MotorControl VIs rather then RobotDrive.
