Im trying to get away with only having 1 thru-hull fitting for 2 pumps. I realize that this is a pretty stupid question but Im just curious.

Sounds like a good question to me...I would imagine if you got two 1" hoses flowing into one 2" hose it would flow properly...and keep in mind a hose runnin out of each side will work also...instead of having two fittings on one side...
