Oil lines

fathacarl
Hi guys,
     need some help with oil lines.  I've got an oil tank with 4 ports.  2 on the top and 2 on the bottom.
Question is:  what do I need for a 750K other than a in and a out? Do I need a vent of some kind or just the two oil lines.
     Gettin a little closer on the Legion Rider Bike.
                                                            Thanks
                                                                 Carl

If the tank does not have a vented cap, you will need a vent on one of the fittings.

Thanks Tools,
Not a vented cap
also, the fittings are nothing more than threaded holes.  No tubes inside the tank.  I want to use the bottom two fittings but that puts the intake and return lines right next to each other.  Do you think this will work or do I need to take the return line to one of the top fittings?

It should not make any difference. As long as the feed is on the bottom it will work.
