So I know the apw3+ can handle 1600 watts on 220v, my question is can it run both l3+ miners if I use pcie splitters.  I know the numbers work but is that a bad idea?  Anybody try it?  If so can you recommend a quality spliter?

Technically, it should be able to. But i highly recommend that you not do it. PSU aren't supposed to be run at 100% of their advertised maximum load which is what you will be doing if you run 2 L3+s on a single APW3. Are you trying to save money? Because if that is your goal you will end up losing more money when your AP3 explodes. Just go and get 2 separate PSUs and not risk burning your own house down.
