Take a look at Left Coast Supply. They have a couple of ao41 bars that would work on your saw that are made by GB.
What are the benefits of upgrading to one of these?

Currently the GB bars are being phased out by left coast and the price has been lowered. Basically a good bar at a good price.
Well, there goes the excuse to upgrade to the expensive but color matching Cannon bar
What should I do with my existing Poulan 16" chains? I don't have the tools to modify them from 60DL to 56DL. Is there someone that modifies them for a small fee or should I just sell them all? Some are new.

The Dolmar is 3/8 lo-profile, I'm not sure what the Poulan runs, but it may not be the same.
OT, but I wonder how much better a 5020 would cut if someone converted it to low pro or .325?The 5020 that I worked on a few weeks ago came stock with 3/8 .050 vanguard chain. Not what comes on a 421.
Well with the stock bar and chain you will be replacing them soon enough to check out something new. The bar on the one I worked on bent very east and stared to separate while just trying to do some minor straightening.OT, but I wonder how much better a 5020 would cut if someone converted it to low pro or .325?
Those Poulans are full 3/8 chains so they will not fit a 3/8 low profile saw. Either keep them for your back up saw or throw them on the trading post here.
I'd be surprised if the op did not have a hammer/small axe, punch and file.... that's all you really need to adjust the length of your loops. 5 mins per chain is all it takes, breakers & spinners are great but far from essential! I have adjusted loops in the field with very basic equipment.
No you see why us who use Dolmar's always refer them to people we like. LolFive tanks between yesterday and today. I really like how easy it is to turn up the oiler when flush cutting stumps.
My little German girl continues to run like clockwork. Never more than two pulls to start after you do the first two at full choke. Warm, she starts on one pull without being choked.

LOL - running the saw is the short, easy part of the job. A faster saw just means you have to get to the working part sooner.Kinda tired from running a saw for four hours. Anyone want to come out and gather up the scraggly top limbs and haul them away for me

The 6100 and 7910 are serious work saws and can get tons of wood down and cut.YUP. Man, I'm a sucker for stuff that just works. I keep eyeing 6100s and 7910s even though nearly all of my work can be done with my 421. I'm happy to have convinced someone else on this forum to buy a 421 from @fordf150.
