Question:
You review says glue is required to install this but that would require I unglue the existing pipes from the tanks on my RV. My question is this . . . Is the construction such that I can disassemble this using the 8 bolts 4 for each valve and just bolt it onto the existing flanges or will it leak if I try this? Please advise, thanks.

You need to use a sealant like our Valterra ABS Solvent Cement # A05-0303 to seal the connections when installing the # T38. Without doing that you most likely would get leaks.
You current setup will be glued too so it would require you to break it loose.
