Default side mounted tanks

I have a high wing mono plane and need to place the tank very low and almost to the firewall sideways. it has the os160 twin and to be able to scale out the interior this is the arrangment I came up with, but the question is three lines from the tank. one is vent top one the other is to carb the lowest one the other for the fill cap. both the carb and the fill lines are clunked, can the carb line be only half way back? this leaves me to believe that on banked turn the fuel at half full will run to the turning side and eng will starve or guit , I think I need some help here... PLEASE builder jim
