well, that's pretty much what I figured
I guess I'm wondering what was or currently is 'standard". I've been looking at the various vendors that will manufacture a custom tank...then talk about "fittings"...what kind of "fittings"?. looks like there's just a piece of pipe sticking out of the tank. is that 1 1/2 ID, or 1 1/2 OD...what are you supposed to attach to it? or is there something threaded, meant for use w/ a slip fitting, as in the way a house p-trap typically connects to its drain? I suppose whevever I actually make the call to get the tank made, they can tell me what is recommended.
I don't plan on modifying the black tank setup at all. it has a 3" outlet that drops straight down from the bottom of the black tank. but attached to that pipe at 90 degrees are 2 1.5" grey water drain pipes. I plan on capping off one of them, putting a valve in the other, and splicing it to the outlet of my proposed grey tank. so I figure 1.5" is fine. of course, I could keep the other one as well, and run it to the other side of the grey tank, and have 2 outlets/drains...then it should empty as fast as the black tank. Hmmm....
you know, one of the issues of squeezing a grey tank into this space between the frame rails is that there won't be any room for it to slope toward a drain, and still keep it all inside the belly pan. but w/ 2 drains...one on either end...wouldn't matter to which side the trailer is leaning.
