Use the one for the I3X single extruder printer, and note the dimensions here:
// Travel limits after homing
#define X_MAX_POS 210
#define X_MIN_POS 0
#define Y_MAX_POS 210
#define Y_MIN_POS 0
#define Z_MAX_POS 180
#define Z_MIN_POS 0

Also the steps/mm here:
#define DEFAULT_AXIS_STEPS_PER_UNIT {78.74,78.74,2560,95} // MXL, Z M8=1.25, MK8

I think that might be enough.

And the bed center, you can try to calibrate it here:
