I don't notice a lot of GB arbor bars in 16" period. I was looking for a .325 0.50 16" bar for my Husqvarna 51 and can't find any for it either.

I'm rocking one of those 12" arbortech bars on my 421. At $9 for the bar and about that much for a loop of chain, i figured it'd be fun to try. It's a super fun little setup. I put it in the hands of my buddy who runs a tree service while I was helping him with a job the other day. He also thought it was pretty slick.
 
I like using the 14" for felling. it handles those 12" oak and hickory just great and narrow enough to do a bore cut with a trigger . great little worker.
 
I don't want an 18" bar but that price makes that pretty darned tempting...
That's a nice bar, but note that it is 68DL instead of the typical 62Dl for lo pro 18" bars. It ends up about an inch longer. This is a 20" Poulan bar, the 68DL GB bar and a 62DL lo pro bar:

This was a test of a different 42cc saw running that bar fully buried in ash - it will make your saw work:
