Post Ferry Tank Installations

I'm after some info about ferry tank installations for a non-preasurised twin, such as an Aerostar, Barron etc.

How is the ferry tank fuel plumbed into the aircraft fuel system. Can it be sett up via an STC so that the connection is permanently fitted so the tank can be simply installed/removed without major fuel system modifications each time?

How do you get an aouthosisation to allow multiple overweight operation, say if you were planning a 4 month round the world trip??

How does CASA in Oz and the insurance companies treat this sort of expedition.
