Puzzle 780. A second follow-up to Puzzle 776

Here we will ask for chain of primes

p1->p2->...

following the basic rule of puzzle 776:

pi+1=pi+Σ(dj^2)pi.

Carlos Rivera found a chain composed by 7 primes:

k=7:

2373457267 2373457517  2373457753  2373457997  2373458369  2373458671 2373458933

This is my best chain (eight primes) :
 
8420118521, 8420118701, 8420118901, 8420119133, 8420119319, 8420119577, 8420119867, 8420120183

The first member of a longer chain is (if I made no mistakes) bigger than  3*10^10.
