probably the best way is to get a second fuel pump and mount it in the fuel cell then "t" that into the stock fuel line then have a switch to go from the stock tank to the fuel cell ....
trying to run the cell into the stock tank gravity fed ect will cause huge headaches as the cell is larger then the stock tank

taking a guess but...

cant you just put a hose going from the new tank to thestock tank with a valve on it so when the stock tank is getting low, you can just transfer the fuel by opening the valve?

I dont see a point in putting another fuel pump with a switch and all, its too complicated and thats just one more thing that could fail if you ask me..
