I have to admit there is some uncertainty in my measurements. Since the nose cones are permanent I did a pretty good job blending the joint and it is difficult to tell where the cone ends and the tube starts

Let me know if you need more info

You are correct on the BT length. It is 5.5". I didn't measure the diameter since mine also has primer and paint (and I didn't want to get the calipers from the shop in the rain), but I'm confident it is Series 8 tubing, which is .908" OD.
