    Great - so the hole I make in the tank for the sink draining in will also serve as my vent - that seems to make sense.
    To drain the shower, I will have to come it to the side of the tank (near the top edge); correct? Don't see any other way unless I really raise up the shower pan.
    Then to drain, I will need to come out the side of the tank (toward the bottom edge).
    I remember you said in your post you were going to make the waste valve easy to get at - how did you arrange that?
    Thanks for your help.

    Well, one tank isn't very much grey water capacity. "why bother", imo. Anyway, there are 2 frame bays that you can use...the front one will tie into the galley drain, which is already vented. If you use the aft, you'll have to go up into the closet. I'm doing both. My biggest problem is because of the black tank I bought...the outlet is just too far toward the front of the trailer, which makes it very difficult to tie in drains from both grey tanks. If you stick with the original black tank, ON the floor, you won't have this problem.

    Hi Chuck:I have a 1973 Safari as well and am doing a full restoration- pretty new at all of this. I have followed your floor thread. I would like to install a gray tank between the cross members as you did; but I will probably just do one. I would love to see your plumbing layout of this if you would not mind sharing. I need to order my tank and let them know where to put the holes - so any help there would be appreciated. Also, did you tie into an existing vent or do a new one?Thanks!Greg
