Trying to get grandpa's old 68 moving, well, it is, and I'm livin in it, but have an issue.

It has no gray water storage. The shower and sink share a vague connection to the toilets holding tank. They connect at a T-pipe, but the valve (which is bad, and even new ones drip) for the black water tank is on one side, and the pipes for the sink and shower are on the other.

The sink and shower dump directly out through the end of the system. Onto the ground.

What do I do? Put a new valve at the end of the system and pray it all drains uphill into the black tank? Tying not to break the bank here so, installing a total replumb and an extra tank isn't a possibility. It's a 68, times have changed, how best do I update this mess?

I replumbed one to exactly that with new Valterra valves... so yes all did push to black tank.  Not a perfect retro fit by any means but worked ok.  Also a bayonette end cap, just be ready to have the drain hose ready as you open the cap to catch accumulated drips....
