Yes this would be the best way. Run a line from block off plate by the oil filter. I would run a line to under the hood then t it off to each turbo.

A y block might be better than a t... just less restriction. But once its under pressure shouldn't really matter.

ok thats what i'm going to do. i seen someone earlier broke the oil pressure sender and drilled a hole and tapped it and got oil there but that didn't look very reliable.

I don't have a pictures (and it's raining like hell) but it's pretty simple. Either pick up one of these adapters from eBay (he's a member on PTNet)

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/LS1-L...Q5fAccessories

or just pull the oil adapter block off plate from your truck, drill and tap it for 1/8 npt and add a 90* 1/8 to -4AN male adapter. I pulled this picture from the web:

I ran a single -4AN line from the block off plate to about the front of the driver's valve cover and then a tee that spilts the oil pressure off to both turbos.

Oil pan. The return has to be gravity feed. A constant down hill from turbo to pass side of pan above oil level sensor.
