Supplying two ATS's from one generator

I am setting up a residential 320amp meter base to receive a generator in the future. Residence has a 400amp meter/main. I plan to mount two 200 amp ATS's at the meter main that correlate to each 200 amp breaker in the enclosure.

Do generators in the 50KW range generally have lugs to accommodate parallel runs of wiring? This will be a Kohler propane if it ever gets installed.

See anything wrong with this plan?

I recall some other threads raising the point that in this situation you may need 3-pole ATS to avoid a potentially problematic parallel neutral path through the generator.
