    I have quite a few saws running .404, but they are ~ 100 cc's or more.

    Over about 50-55cc. Sure you can get a ms260/261 with 3/8 but it can also be set up with .325 same with the farm boss.

    Read the bar its usually listed on the bar...least on every modern saw it is.
    (Least I think it is?) What saw are we talking about?
    Post a pic of the chain. We can tell from the pic the size...gauge you need a micrometer.

    Its going to be 3/8 lo pro chain most likely .050 gauge but could be .043 gauge. As for number of drive links...just count the part that rides in the bar.

    dusky here are the two variations that I own currently. I usually run 12 and 14" on these. At 33cc's I find those bar lengths to be optimal.

    I run a 14" bar on my 40cc top handle stihl. That saw is nasty with that bar.
