Charlies' suggestion of the Facet transfer pump is what I've been using.  I = use a 'T' in the fuel return line to the main tank for the transfer pump so it = didn't even require an additional fitting in the tank (above what is necessary = for EFI).  The Facet has a check valve function = internally.

 There really is not a simpler system = that I am aware of.

 

Well; there is, but of course it = is dependant on air frame design. My Velocity has gravity feed from both mains to a 3 gallon = sump, gravity feed from sump to the EFI pump; regulator return to the = sump.  Now that’s simple.
