I do not plan to reinstall a PVC pipe since my new tank will not be foamed. As long as the flow is not obstructed by the tank I see no reason for the PVC.

Whale, I figured it had to be original . Are you putting in a plastic tank? Iam haveing mine refabircated from the original 1 inch smaller in diamention and I think hes going to make it two inches taller in height and it wont be foamed in , it will have heavy rubber attached to the bottom. its an aluminum tank powder coated. I will have more pics when the tanks done.
