Just setting up my bike and have a dura-ace 10 speed cassette 12-25, ultegra rear mech short cage, front ultegra double mech, fsa team crank 53-39, what length should the chain be?

Depends on how long your chainstays are!

This site works well in that it gives a quick and easy answer: http://www.machinehead-software.co.uk/b ... hcalc.html. It is based on the Park Tools one.

The largest cog/largest sprocket method described on the park tool site has always worked for me.

Consensus is two links longer than the chain wrapped around the largest cog and largest ring. SRAM also specifies this. If using a quicklink assume the link is one of the two added links.
