Why does BRS recommend this?
When it comes to high-flow/high-head pressure needs the Reeflo pumps are the way to go. With two different impellers, their value is that much greater. Reeflo is by far one of the most sought-after pumps for commercial systems, because they last a long time, built well, and they are quiet. They are not the smallest pump on the market but if you have the room they are the way to go.
Energy efficient, quiet and cool operation with maximum durability. Hybrid model includes kit to easily switch between Dart and Snapper pumps thus allowing you to dramatically change flow rate and power consumption to best meet the needs of your aquarium set up.

Product Questions
Due to the natural buildup of precipitate and organics, we recommend regularly breaking down and cleaning equipment such as pumps on a regular basis for best performance. After a longer period of time you may also find that a significant buildup has occurred on the plumbing itself which may also impede water flow.
Regards
The Snapper/Dart Hybrid pump has dimensions of 11” x 6.6” x 7” and that does not include an input fitting into the pump. Depending on the fitting length you are looking to use it would be a tight fit with that pump in a 13.5” space. If you look into using an elbow fitting or a nipple directly off the bulkhead it could work but you would want to double check with the fittings you plan on using.
I have included a link below for the chart. Either the dart or snapper impeller can be used to follow the correct height. Feel free to let us know if you have any further questions!

I haven't ever seen something labeled as a dart/snapper kit, but this product is the dart/snapper hybrid pump. The pump has both the dart and the snapper impellers with it and you can switch between them depending on how much flow you want.
Thanks
The flow constantly will decrease as the back pressure increases. Beyond the maximum head height flow will stop. Head height is a measure of back pressure. The primary source of this back-pressure is gravity from pumping vertical distances but there is also other considerations like friction from the pipe, elbows, etc
The Reeflo Snapper/Dart has a 2" input on it so you would need a 2" bulkhead and pipe to feed it. A 2" bulkhead like this would be pretty typical:
