<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">You may be able to buy the individual pipe assemblies from a local auto parts store (most likely at NAPA). Expect them to be available in 6-inch increments of length, like 6", 12", 18", etc. If you need a 13"
length, then buy a 18" length, cut it shorter, reinstaall the end fitting and re-flare the pipe. The parts store will have a flaring tool, may have a tool lending program, might even help you to cut and re-flare the pipe right in the store. Depending on quality
of the flaring tool, you might expect to spoil a couple of parts before you get it right.<o:p></o:p></p>
<pre>Now you have me keyed up to add the BMC part numbers to the page<o:p></o:p></pre>
<pre>linked above.<o:p></o:p></pre>
<pre>After that, I can post new Part Numbers tech pages for the individial<o:p></o:p></pre>
<pre>part numbers.<o:p></o:p></pre>
