That base -- http://www.inksupply.com/product-details.cfm?pn=PR-CLEARBASE-PT--
is made for Noritus/Claria dye dilution.

UT14 K is Eboni.  None of the ligher UT14 inks are dilute Eboni.

The UT14 "color" position inks use MIS/InkSupply.com "amber" base.  See
http://www.inksupply.com/product-details.cfm?pn=ESC-BASEPT-UC

The light inks -- LC and LM -- use 30% concentrate ink (C and
M, respectively  and 70% amber base.  The UT14 Y is gloss optimizer, which
is the same as the amber base.

Since you have to buy the amber base from MIS/Inksupply.com, there is no
savings from diluting your own.  The amber base costs the same as the
dilute ink.
