Hello Tony,

Unfortunately BLAT is not designed to work with very short sequences.

You can still use the output of other tools with the UCSC database. 
Simply convert the files to one of the Custom track data formats and 
upload to use along with the rest of your target assembly.

Thanks,
Jennifer
