Default VentusB retro Tailtank information

Does anyone know if this was a 'standard' retrofit?
The rubber bellows in my tank is shot...and I have
no idea where to find a replacement. My ship has no
record when the tank was added, the install appears
to be quite clean. The bellows has a 90 degree turn
in it from the tank to the dump valve. I imagine the
work was done late '80's or early '90's?

That sounds like a factory valve and bellows. Check
with SH. Heinze may have the bellows, bet its the same
one they use in the wing dump valves.
