Un-complicates the whole switching valve/extra hose needs as far as the EFI goes & yet still allows double the fuel volume which can be transferred via a 12v toggle switch when desired.

Just thinking of easy alternatives outside of a Burb tank.
This is a fantastic idea. I have been considering that as my #1 option to run dual tanks. Bulkhead fitting into main tank and flip the "on" switch when the main tank starts getting low.

I created this thread here to air out all my fuel system questions...

I like the transfer pump system best. For one its cheap... no need for a new efi tank, a new sending unit, a switching valve etc... and its simple. Only one set of wires going to the gauge, transfer tank is completely independent of main tank. Also allows me to set up one tank now, add in secondary down the road. I'm for it.
