I have a Poulan 2450 with an 18" bar and 38cc engine.
I have been using it a lot cutting firewood lately and was wondering if changing to a 16" bar would give me any advantage other than slightly better balance and less weight.
I noticed that they do sell 16" Oregon bars for the 2450 and
I am thinking that the shorter chain will allow the engine to rev faster and give me more power to cut through some thicker wood. Am I right? or will I have more cutting power with the 18" bar?
Thanks.
