My early 55 came with .325 / .58 guage.
It cuts great!

You'll love that saw after ya' get about 10 or so tanks through it.It really wakes up after break-in.('course a mufffler mod really helps too)
Man Frankie had that thing tuned up nice. I got to fire her up and boy I was impressed with the power. I will be cuttting with it soon and I can't wait. He threw in an extra 20LP chain and a few other things with the saw, so I think I made out pretty good. That's my first purchase in there, so I wasn't expecting any handouts. $420 once it was all said and done with tax and everything. He told me to bring her back in after 20 hours or so and he'd fine tune it. Heck of a nice fella, thanks to all for the advice!!
P.S. Hey Steve, I told him he needs to hook you up for the reference!! Thanks again.
Steve, would you mind elaborating about what muffler mods you did to your 5100?
I'd be interested in that too.

Sorry I'll get some pictures in the daylight.Basically just gutted the muffler and added 2 small holes in the side.Just wanted to let her breath better.Sounds awesome too.
If I remember right I started with 1/4" holes and worked my way up to about7/16"'
I stopped when I ran out of adjustment on the high side and was still 4-stroking.I have not removed the limiters.
Just be sure and remove and clean all filings out of the muffler before you start it.
Suck Back is a ##### !!
I can see it now....I just begged my wife to let me get this saw and she happens to see me drilling holes in the muffler. How would I explain that one!!
I just picked mine up a couple of weeks ago and only a have a few tanks through it, but it runs great. I'm sure your going to be very happy with your new saw.

Now three... then four... then ten...
hahah
I have yet to run a 5100, but I cant wait to get that chance. Someday, the wait just might get to me and I'll have to get one for myself. I dont need permission though, thats the beautiful thing about being single
Evanrude, I think we have met some place before?

Well with all this talk about the Domar 5100 saw, I just had to give one a try. Been setting up chain combos too! .325 with a 8 pin sprocket with 66dl's is working pretty darn good!
