Venring needed for 100' 3-inch pipe?

I just was appointed as facility chairman for a area club. I can finally address the issues on their steam system.
Today, there is no main venting on this system. The mains are around 125-feet of 3-inch pipe. There are some 1-1/2-inch caps from removed radiators that I can use to connect the venting. How much do I need?
Thanks.

Assuming the stated length
of pipe is one single steam main, you'd need 6 Gorton #2 vents at the end of the main.
If there are several mains totaling 125 feet, we'd need the lengths of each individual main.
