I'm not sure how easy it would be to change out a 1" bulkhead to a 2" bulkhead, you would have to redrill the hole and even then there will not likely be enough clearance for a 2" bulkhead in the overflow box of a 50 gallon tank. a 1" drain will run up to 700 gph without an issue, and more than likely this is not the actual flow rate it will receive.

windcoast, what pump are you using or plan on using?
