Ok, so what are the best center drive cups to use? I have a few of the silver ones from the X SS kits, and I appear to have some black ones too, possibly came with the xl center dogbones i bought a while back.

Seems like the black parts are superior to the silver ones... Anyone know for sure?

I'm not having any issues with the HD silver center diff cups on FB2, no denting either vs the black ones. Wish they make em also for the outer drives on the diffs.

Can you show pics of the used chrome vs the used stock black ones?

If you want to wear notches in your drive cups after the first few batteries then get the chrome ones. If you want them to last a long time (my stock flux cups show VERY little wear after maybe 30 batteries) then run the flux/XL units. I cant say for a fact that the flux/XL uses standard X center drive cups or not.
