Here's how I did mine, it is a 4-3-2 pattern and I really like how it came out. I am just waiting on the first real ride to test out the traction which I am sure will be unreal. I kept them all inside the windows since I feel it really hurts cornering when there are studs on the outer part of the track. That is how I had it on my 04 Edge-X 800 and taken out the outside studs made a huge difference.
I liked the Stud-boy 4-2-4 setup but with my stock Predator (finger) track which has every third window open, I did not want the outer studs to be right on the edge of the hole. I have had a few pull-outs on other sleds and they are always the ones near the holes.
Wait a minute, do you have a 136" track? If so the pattern may differ.

How about this pattern from Woody's, you can keep the lines with 4 studs closer together to keep them inside:
I just put 108 on my Warrior, All up the middle with a V pattern and it works really well. (Factory Ripsaw)

Now that I think about it, you have 54 pitches on a 136in track. The 4-2-2 pattern by Woody's would surely work but for my sled I would want them more evenly distributed. I would go with a 3-2-3 pattern like this that I just made in Paint.NET.
4-2-2 pattern: 54/3=18 [(4x18=72) + (2x18=36) + (2x18=36)] 72+36+36 = 144
3-2-3 pattern: 54/3=18 [(3x18=54) + (2x18=36) + (3x18=54)] 54+36+54 = 144
You also want to try and not line them up perfectly because then they will tend to run in the same trench made by the previous stud and not grab new ice. I would run one line of 3 up against one side and then the next set of 3 against the other side and alternate them like so. Then for the sets of two, I would run them in a "V" pattern for every group of three.
